ACCEPTED Check Mark

As the child grows so will the penis. The circumcision removes the foreskin to expose the glands of the penis. Often times the normal rolls of flesh will make this seem to 'disappear' but as the child grows this will become less of an issue. Watch the child for signs of normal growth and development. An have this examined at every 'well child' visit.
best wishes
