Little boys

My son will most likely need to have a operation on his penis due to it having a slight bend in it

. I wanting to hear from other mums who's little boys have had the same thing, is it common? Do they feel alot of pain after? how long till they return to there normal self? do they get pain relife?

My brother had a slight bend, he is grown up now and has no issues its fine. What sort of operation? Seems very drastic to operate on a new babys penis if its purely cosmetic.

No offence whatsoever, just wanting to get the full story, is that all their is wrong, just it's got a little bend in it??? If so, did you know a lot of men have bent penis's and are completely able to perform sexually just as well as a 'not bent' penis. same with urinating.

Just wanted to let you know that you dont HAVE to get this operation done on him.(incase you thought otherwise).

Just spoke to Dh too, he says so many of his mates are slightly bent (their penis's that is)

and not that he looks or anything

but it's classed as the norm really....bent, not bent, no big deal.

Bubs has been to see a paediatrician who has told me i need to take bubs to see a surgeon i have a appointment on july 29th, the paediatrician said that if its left it may cause irritation, i dont no much else thats why i started a thread because im really worried and DONT want my DS to go though the pain of having a operation. My fingers r crossed that he wont have too as it would be terrible for him.

Hey Sweetie, i'm not sure either, having some similar issues with what to do about Cameron, am going to start a similar thread about it.

seek many opinions before going ahead with it, it sounds a bit suss, why was it noticed in the first place? Just ask lots of questions cos as you said you dont want to do it only to find out it was totally not needed.

The doctors picked it up when he was first born and gave it six weeks to fix itself, it was rechecked to 6 weeks and now i have to see a surgeon which is going to cost me $180 bucks and i wont get anything back so its going to be hard to get a few opinions as im a single mummy but i dont want him to have a operation thats the last thing i would want.
