Hi,

This is because of anatomical distortion of urethra following the procedure. You can wait 2-3 weeks to see for any spontaneous improvement as the healing of internal tissue is completed - tissue contraction and remodelling may improve this a little. If no change by then, we will have to correct by urethroplasty.

Meanwhile, try some manipulation of penile shaft in opposite direction while urinating to see whether the stream is realigning.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
