What Is The Treatment For Penis Skin Attached To The Head Of The Penis?

My son is 11 months and has a fat pad which makes his penis go into itself. My concern is that it seems the skin on the shaft of his penis is attached to the rim of the head of the penis. He is circumsized, is this normal, well I dont think it is so when will it fix itself or what should we do. I went to my family dr and she siad it was fine and it might not fix itself until he hits puberty but what if it doesnt at all what are the complications or solutions?

Hi,

I suggest you see a urologist because we are the specialist to be able to determine whether there is further need to manage your son's genital organ or observe until he hits puberty.

often times because of the fats in the area the penis would seem buried or the shaft is missing and you can only see the head of the penis. when the boy grows then the fats will turn to muscles in the penis would be normal looking already.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Manuel C See IV, Urologist
