Infant circumcision is not covered by national health care in places like the United Kingdom and Canada. Infant circumsion is also not covered by most health insurances in the United States. Not every boys has to have circumcision. There are only a few medical conditions where circumcision may be necessary. The majority of circumcisions are done for religious and/or customary reasons. There are recent studies/reports showing circumcised males have lower incidence certain sexually transmitted infections . There is also a slight lower incidence of penile cancer, which is already a very rare cancer by itself. There is also fewer urinary tract infections during the first year. You may say what can be so bad with all the benefit described so far. Well, all procedures carry risks. Unintended adverse outcomes will happen to some. Some will say if you're born with it, why remove it. The American Academy of Pediatricians still does not recommend routine circumcision for all boys. They leave it to the parents to decide after providing the pro's and con's.

Yes, just like with an surgical procedure there are risks of negative outcomes following circumcision.
