Omaha P. asked:Would you please post this anonymously? My son has what appears to be a penile adhesion. The connection is present around the entire circumference of the head of the penis, and has my husband concerned. I showed it to our family doctor at his 5 year check-up and she recommended seeing a urologist to decide if it is ok or needs treatment. Any recommendations for pediatric urologists? Any advice on how to know if this is an issue he will grow out of or if it needs to be addressed? Searching on the internet brings up lots of into on both sides of the issue, so it's hard to know what to think.Larissa B. replied:Penile adhesions should always be left alone. They will break down on their own later and if they don't, application of a prescription steroid cream will take care of them. http://www.thewholenetwork.org/.../penile-adhesions-what...

Intact A. asked:Intact friendly pediatric urologist DESPERATELY needed: "Hi... I am going through a court battle right now in Tucson trying to keep my five year old son from being circumcised for non medical reasons. My attorney says I need an expert to testify, a pediatric urologist. I've called several local ones but they're all happy to mutilate young boys for money. My witness can testify telephonically so they don't need to be local. I was wondering if you could pose this to the group and see if anyone knows if any experts who would be willing to testify against non-therapeutic circumcision, preferably for minimal compensation... please and thank you, my son needs you!"Mary D. replied:The bottom of this page says: "We happily help families with forcibly retracted boys (with first-aid, medical, and legal advice) at NO charge, though donations are, of course, appreciated." So I wonder if they could help in this instance as well? http://www.thewholenetwork.org/...
