Question

The newborn’s testicles are one larger and one smaller, and one is higher than the other. Was it possible that the father accidentally injured them while helping to clean them at birth?

Answer

Parents should not worry excessively; everyone’s physical condition is different. After birth, the size and position of a baby’s testicles may change, which is a normal phenomenon. Gently cleaning the baby’s testicles daily will not cause any damage. The observed differences in size and position should be monitored continuously. These suggestions are for the question ‘How should a three-month-old baby with one larger and one smaller testicle be treated?’ I hope this helps you and your baby stay healthy!
