What kind of help is needed: What are the clinical manifestations of hypospadias in children? How is hypospadias treated in children? Where is it best to seek treatment?Doctor's answer:
Hello, newborns and infants almost have no symptoms, while adolescents and adults often complain of bent urine stream, spray-like urine, and a penile bend towards the abdomen, which interferes with sexual activity. Patients with perineal or penoscrotal type need to squat to urinate and often lead to infertility. Additionally, due to the lack of skin on the ventral side of the penis, the penis appears curved, and the external urethral orifice may be narrowed. It should be carefully examined, and if narrowing is present, urethral orifice incision may be required.Hypospadias is often associated with second-order neuron testicular atrophy. It is essential to carefully examine whether the testicles are present in the scrotum. Treatment can only be implemented through surgery. It is recommended that parents take their children to a first-tier city for surgery.
