Circumcision details regarding
Sir / Mam, I have been a diabetic person for 5 years taking medications daily. I'm frequently undergoing the penile infection which I'm treating myself with the required medicines and ointment. But I need a permanent solution for this problem, and I need proper advice for the foreskin removal circumcision process. I'm a sales professional where I can't take leave more than 2 or 3 days. Also the cost for this procedure etc.
Pls advice

If you have frequent infection which means your non compliance to medication. Check your Hba1c and ppbs. If hba1c too high above 9 then consider circumcision. Atleast a 1 week rest is needed as you are diabetic so wound healing would slow
