Indian Baby Bath » Washing A Boy |
| Never try to push back his foreskin to clean under it - you may hurt him, or damage the foreskin. Wash the whole of the nappy area and dry carefully, particularly the skin creases. By the time your baby boy turns three or four months old, the foreskin will loosen and will be able retract naturally. |
| Your baby's foreskin does not need any special cleaning. Normal bathing with plain water is the best care. Do not rub a lot of frothy soap around the foreskin as this can get under it and cause irritation. |
| Seek medical advice if you notice pus at the end of the foreskin, if the foreskin balloons out during urination, if the urine flow is weak, or stops and starts, or seems to be painful. |
