Patient's question:
The child's penis is a bit red. The last time they visited the hospital, it was said to be inflamed. The corona was peeled off and washed to heal. In the past few days, when trying to wash, it was found that the corona has re-adhered to the foreskin, making it difficult to peel off. The child is two years and ten months old. Is this adhesion normal?Doctor's answer:
If your baby has severe phimosis, it may be caused by bacterial infection inside the foreskin, which is related to the child's phimosis. I don't know what you use to clean your child, but it's best to use povidone-iodine or Huangbai wash to clean and treat it.General rinsing with clean water doesn't have sterilization function, so it's not very effective. Using Huangbai wash or disinfectant to clean can have a certain therapeutic effect on bacterial infection. After the child grows a bit older, an circumcision surgery can be performed.
