Question

I don’t know why my child’s little penis keeps swelling, and he often scratches at sleep, saying it’s not uncomfortable. Moreover, I find this situation quite troubling for him, although he is still young and my son is otherwise normal. He is healthy and intelligent. Is this phenomenon normal for him?

Answer

Hello. Your child’s little penis is experiencing swelling. This could generally be a sign that they need to urinate. This is a very normal occurrence. If there is no pain or discomfort, and their diet and mental state are also normal, then there’s no need to worry too much. Usually, there should be no major issues. However, if your child continues to frequently complain about their penis swelling, it is advisable to go to the hospital for a check-up to determine the cause of this condition. This will allow you to feel more at ease.
