Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. Dear what you have explained about your child is wright but what you have understood may not be correct. Child rubbing their genetalia for pleasure will be there, but we need to examine his penis to look for the foreskin. sometimes if the tip of the skin is tight , it can cause irritation. To relieve that he may be doing that. Please get it checked by pediatric surgeon.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing your child good health.
