>>The "phimosis" is not a problem at present (as Jim says) - it will need encouragement and perhaps steroid over a period of time.
>>The "infection" is something that certainly may need immediate attention. Could you clearly describe what is happening, over what time period, and what you might have done about it so far?
>It is much preferable to have a doctor who is accustomed to seeing such problems look at it, rather than trying yourself to describe clearly, on the Internet, what is happening, unless you live in an area where competent medical care is not readily available. Best wishes.

Are you thinking that Dr Paul is not accustomed to seeing such problems? What makes you think that? Had you even considered that it may not even be an infection? Little boys often get a redness in that area. So what?
