Patient's question:
A 6-year-old boy experiences penile swelling and pain after waking up at night. He has no other symptoms during the day, and occasionally, adults notice that when he gets up in the morning and leans forward, there might be some signs of excitement in his lower body. I don't know how to correct this in the child. Please advise, thank you!!Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that you take your child to a regular and professional hospital for a check-up to see if there are any diseases. If your child has phimosis or excessive prepuce, please undergo circumcision. Do not let your child wear tight underwear. Rule out urethritis. Get a urinalysis done. If necessary, you need to receive antibiotic treatment. Try not to let your child hold their urine. Holding urine is very bad for health. Pay attention to eating some lighter foods in daily life.
