What should I do if my baby's penis is slightly swollen?

Patient's question:

Hello! My little baby's penis is a bit swollen, and it looks a bit translucent. There's also a slightly hard texture on top of it. Could you please tell me if this is serious and what might be causing it? The baby is 21 days old.

It's okay, just try your best to prevent him from touching it. It's relatively common for young children to have swollen testicles in daily life. If this happens, don't worry too much. First, it's essential to maintain a positive mindset and actively seek treatment. Never delay it for too long. Generally, it's important to ensure adequate fluid intake.
