Question

My baby was born, and the doctor said it wasn’t normal, and then told me that the child might have pediatric urethral fissure. I don’t know what that is, and I want to ask what pediatric urethral fissure is?

Answer

Pediatric urethral fissure is a common congenital anomaly of a baby’s urinary tract or external genitalia. There are many reasons for this condition, most often due to endocrine abnormalities during pregnancy, leading to insufficient development of the baby. It is recommended that you take your baby to a nearby hospital with good technical capabilities for relevant examinations, and then undergo surgical treatment based on the examination results.
