My 2 Year Old Has A Minor Penile Adhesion .

default
Posted on Wed, 17 Jul 2019
Question: My 2 year old has a minor penile adhesion. We’ve never noticed until he started to get older. He is circumcised. A nurse practioner told us to try to gently pull it off every night but that’s like torture for him. I’ve been putting Vaseline on the areas that have lifted off on their own but that’s about all he can handle. I’ve read numerous articles saying just to leave it alone and keep applying Vaseline and that it would fix itself as it grows. Need a second opinion, thanks

I have gone through your query and understand your concerns.

You have rightly read about leaving it alone.

However, I would need to have a glance on the adhesion before I can comment upon it. I would request you to upload an image. You can simply upload/attach it to the 'Reports section' of this web page only.

I would await your response.
