My baby is 10 months old. Today I noticed that his circumcised penis had some of the skin re-attaching to the bottom of the head. After a couple of the first well visits to the pediatrician, she told me to pull the skin down with every diaper change, which I have been doing. But after seeing like the skin was re-attaching again, I pulled it down a little more than usual (very carefully, of course). It separated further from the head than normal (confirming that the skin was indeed re-attached). Now it is red almost all around the base of the head and looks like it is hurting him. Although he did not cry, he did make a face like saying "ouch, that hurt!". I feel terrible and I am worry about this. Please tell me how to clean him and what should I do to avoid the skin from re-attaching without causing him ANY pain. Thank you!
