My son is just 4yrs old, I would like to know - when one should start cleaning PENIS-HEAD by pulling back foreskin.

Since boy is just 4yrs old, is it advisable to wait some more years OR use oil etc to lubricate foreskin making is easy to pull back foreskin & clean head.

Any one with medical knowledge or experience please advise. No silly/stupid comments plzzzz.

If you can pull it back gently then go ahead and do so to clean underneathe with water and mild soap. If the foreskin doesn't retract easily, then don't force it back, it may still be stuck to the glans and that's normal. So if it moves back easily go ahead, if not leave it alone until it does. See the link for more info.

You need to be cleaning it everytime you bathe him. Pull the foreskin back and gently wash the head and remove the matter that builds up even on a 4 year old. You should have been doing that a long time ago.

under the foreskin only needs cleaning in a child if its separated
this can vary with age ,some dont separate and retract till they're
a lot older.In my country we are advised that the child should be the first to retract them selves taught to do this in the bath when older enough to understand 4/5 usually .once the can retract they
can generally wash themselves.The foreskin is self cleaning at this age anyway its only when there hormones kick in that it becomes more important,but getting them in a good routine at this age will stand them in good stead.

the time-honored penis length for a 14 year previous boy is 4 inches erect. So if yours is already 6 inches you're way forward for adult men your age. little doubt that's going to strengthen extra effective. you will in all probability finally end up with a penis of around 7 inches.

It shud be done right from the time the child is born. Hygiene of the penis is the most important item of personal hygience because of the way it is covered by foreskin.

I may not have medical knowledge but I would think it would be advisable to make it a habit of washing while bathing. That way the habit will grow on him and it's hygenic!

you can't pull back the foreskin of such young by and it is ging to be painful for the kid if you try it. just wash thesuperficial area while bathing him. and it will be alright in general.

You must not have a mother. You haven't learned t think for yourself either. Most likely you should not even have children until you learn something.

Carefull the darn thing might jump out and bite you.

Carefull not to play with it too much now.
