Question
Seven-month-old baby’s urination is weak and distant!
Answer
If a seven-month-old baby’s urine stream is weak and not far, it is highly suspected to be phimosis, which may be related to an overly long foreskin or phimosis. It is important to maintain hygiene in the perineal area, regularly cleaning the area, and for boys, try to pull the foreskin back as much as possible during cleaning. If there is a situation of an overly long foreskin, more frequent cleaning should be done appropriately. It is advisable to consider a circumcision surgery as the child grows older to prevent recurrent urinary tract infections, which could even affect the development of the external genitalia.
