Hi,
My 4 year old son complains that his penis is "bothering" him during erection. He hits at it trying to make it smaller. I told him to leave it alone, that it would go away. Yesterday he told me that he wishes he could be a girl so that he doesn't have to feel it bother him. With that worrysome remark, I started asking more questions. He is complaining that there is pain where the foreskin meets the head of the pennis. He is circumsized, however, the skin was left too long and the head of the pennis is completely covered by the foreskin when it is not erect. Pulling back the skin, all the way, reveals a very red ring around the head where it meets the foreskin, and the head has a purpleish tinge just above the redness. I have made an appointment with a urologist but I'm looking for your thoughts
Thanks,
s
