What Causes Purple Color Foreskin?
My son is almost 6 years old and he is not circumsized. When he pulls his foreskin back on one side it is purple. I also cant get his foreskin to pull all the way back. it seems as if his foreskin is attached to his head, not only in the middle but on one side. What can i do?

Hi,
If foreskin cannot be retracted back fully than phimosis can be possible. For that daycare surgery circumcision operation needed. In that foreskin is removed and stitches were taken that is auto dissolving in one week.
So for detailed examination and all these discussions, it's advisable to consult a nearby urologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
