Foreskin Care

Care of the foreskin for intact infants, boys, and men

Basic Care of the Intact Child

Visit http://www.drmomma.org/2010/01/basic-care-of-intact-child.html

Thorough and detailed information on how to care for a boy with an intact penis, that is, a boy who is not circumcised. At first, an infant does not require any special care of his intact penis - just wipe like a finger. Care of a circumcised infant is much different because the circumcision wound must be handled carefully and kept clean as it heals. The article notes that the foreskin may not retract naturally until after the boy is 10 years old or older.

Clinical features and management of recurrent balanitis; association with atopy and genital washing.

Visit http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1195128/?tool=pmcentrez

Study published in Genitourin Med. (currently Sexually Transmitted Infections), 1993 October; 69(5): 400–403. This study shows that using soap to wash under the foreskin contributes to balanitis.

For 72% of the patients with recurrent balinitis, "a diagnosis of irritant dermatitis was made. In comparison with the remaining patients, they had a greater lifetime incidence of atopic illness and more frequent daily genital washing with soap. For 28 (90%) of these patients, use of emollient creams and restriction of soap washing alone controlled symptoms satisfactorily."
