my son

Written by concerned mother at 25 Jun 2004 15:26:33:

My son is ten. Recently got foreskin stuck behind glans in bath. He paniced and forced it over tearing it in 3 places. been to see consultant he gave hydrocortisone cream twice daily for 6 weeks then go back.. Possible Dorsal Relieving Incision? If does not work possible circumcision. My son cries himself to sleep at thought of circumcision. So do I for his sake.

Has anyone seen a dorsal relieving job? what does it look like? can you see the "V" cut when flacid?

I am now doing stretching with him twice a day. Bathing him in Parrafin to soften it and using emolient cream as weel as the hodrocortisone/

Any suggestions or input?
