Question
What are the causes of neonatal penile swelling?
Answer
Neonatal penile swelling may be caused by a hernia. Parents can try conservative treatments such as medication therapy and hernia belt therapy. If these methods are ineffective, surgical treatment may be required, such as high ligation of the hernia sac combined with artificial repair. Parents should closely observe their child’s symptoms and seek medical attention promptly, avoiding self-administration of non-prescription medications. Rational use of medication is very important for the child’s recovery.
