Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the situation you described, it might be an issue with smegma. Before the age of five, male babies naturally have physiological phimosis, and over time, smegma can accumulate inside the foreskin. This smegma can irritate the baby's glans mucosa and urethral opening, causing pain. It is recommended to take your baby to a children's hospital surgical department for consultation.
It is also suggested that you can buy Furacilin solution from a pharmacy to immerse and disinfect the affected area daily. Additionally, it is possible that your child may have some degree of phimosis. It is recommended that you take your child to the pediatric surgery department of a hospital to determine if surgical treatment is necessary.
