Child Has Been Circumcised Since Was Day Old. But It Looks Skin Is Growing Over Head. Suggest?

My son has been circumcised since he was a day old and when we left the hospital, I was doing everything the doctors told me to do for it but it's been 2 years and his penis still looks the same as it did when it was done but it kind of looks like the skin is growing back over the head. I was wondering is this something to be concerned about and does his circumcision need to be fixed?

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

Since he was circumcised the skin you may be seeing is from shaft of penis. Just retract and see its attachment. At the point of attachment if there is any free skin coming out then consult your doctor for examination and management. Hope I answered your question. Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries.
Wish you good health. Take care.

Regards
