Important Congenital Penile Disorders to Know Before Circumcision

Content:

Hello, SUNNAT KHATNA CLINICS family! 👋

Before proceeding with circumcision, it’s crucial to ensure your baby’s health is in top shape. One important aspect of our screening process is checking for congenital penile disorders. Here are some key conditions we look for:

1. Hypospadias

What It Is: A condition where the opening of the urethra is located on the underside of the penis instead of at the tip.

Why It Matters: Hypospadias can affect urination and future sexual function. It often requires surgical correction before circumcision.

2. Buried Penis

What It Is: A condition where the penis is hidden below the surface of the skin, often due to excess fat or abnormal skin attachment.

Why It Matters: This condition can complicate circumcision and might need corrective surgery first.

3. Bilateral Hydrocele

What It Is: A condition where fluid accumulates around both testicles, causing swelling in the scrotum.

Why It Matters: While hydroceles often resolve on their own, severe cases may require treatment before circumcision.

4. Penile Torsion

What It Is: A condition where the penis is twisted along its axis.

Why It Matters: Significant torsion can affect the appearance and function of the penis and may need surgical correction before circumcision.

5. Penoscrotal Web

What It Is: A condition where there is an abnormal skin web between the scrotum and the underside of the penis.

Why It Matters: This can affect the appearance and function of the penis and might need to be addressed before circumcision.

At SUNNAT KHATNA CLINICS, our thorough screening process helps us identify these and other conditions to ensure your baby is ready for a safe circumcision. If you have any concerns or questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Thank you for trusting us with your child’s care! ❤️
