2-month-old baby, suddenly found the glans penis was red and swollen this morning, and by dinner time discovered the scrotum was also red and swollen. What could be the reason for the redness and swelling of the baby's scrotum?Doctor's answer:
Consider the reasons why the child is not wearing diapers properly. Next, regarding contagious suggestions, it is best not to use diapers. Gently wipe the affected area with warm water and observe carefully. Maintain dryness and ensure they are not too tight. If the condition is severe, it is recommended to seek medical attention for a thorough examination. If there is a contagion, take some antibiotics for treatment and consult the doctor. For patients with scrotal swelling and redness, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications. If left untreated, it may affect overall health, so patients should seek timely medication and avoid overexertion in daily life. Pay attention to personal hygiene.
