A boy should be taught to wash under his foreskin as soon he is able to comfortably retract his foreskin on his own. Before the foreskin can be retracted, there is no need to wash under the foreskin. Parents should never attempt to force back a tight foreskin, as this can cause scaring. 90% of boys can retract their foreskin by age 4. Once a boy can retract the foreskin, he should wash it just like any other body part in his daily bath or shower. The foreskin should be pulled back, and the head should be washed with soap and warm water and then rinsed off. The foreskin should then be pushed back to cover the head of the penis.
There is no need to wash under the foreskin until the boy can slide the foreskin back on his own comfortably. The foreskin is normally too tight to be pulled back until about 4 years of age, but for some boys it may be as late as puberty. You should never attempt to force back a tight foreskin, as this can cause injury and scaring the penis, which can result in phimosis that persists into adulthood. For infants and boys who can not yet slide their foreskin back, simply wash the outside of the penis. Once the foreskin can be slid back, the boy should be taught to pull back the foreskin and wash the head of the penis with soap and warm water, just like any other body part, in his daily bath or shower.

What could happen if a boy's penile foreskin is forced back too early?
The foreskin of an uncircumsized newborn should NEVER be pulled back; it is a myth and it is dangerous to do this. It should never be forced back by a parent, no matter what the reason the parent has. Keep your hands off of it. Tissues of the glans penis and of the covering foreskin are not yet differentiated, and the foreskin should be left alone. Some physicians consider that an unretracted foreskin can be normal and non-problematic even as late as puberty. Yes, there can be problems with the foreskin, but pathological phimosis (a medically problematic unretractable foreskin) is virtually NEVER a competent diagnosis at birth.AnswerThe foreskin does not retract at birth. Forcing it back at this age can cause tearing and scarring meaning it will be difficult to retract in the future.

Can your 2year old son get a circumcised?
No. A tight foreskin is normal for 2 year olds. Usually the foreskin can not be retracted until at least 4 years of age. There is no need to wash under the foreskin until the boy can comfortably pull back his foreskin himself. Parents should never try to force back the foreskin, as this can cause injury to the penis and scaring, making it hard for the foreskin to retract when the boy is older. If phimosis persists for older boys, teenagers, or adults, it can be treated with a corticosteroid cream (betamethasone 0.05%, available by prescription) and gentle gradual stretching. This fixes phimosis in 90% of cases. Only if this doesn't work would circumcision even be considered.
Should it be legal to drink under the age of 21?
I think it should be legal for individuals to drink who are under the age of 21 but not under 18 years of age because persons under the age of 18 are still considered minors but when they reach the age of 18 they are considered to be adults and responsible for their actions.
What if your foreskin stops at the opening of your tip of your penis and it never used to before?
