What Could Be The Enlarged Skin Color Pimple Near The Shaft Of An Infant?
My son is 20 wks old. On the underside of his own is about halfway up the shaft there is what looks like an enlarged skin coloured pimple - not a bump but is circular. He had it quite a while (possibly always but he was prem so his bits were very tiny in the beginning and we may not have noticed)... Any idea what it might be? No discharge swelling or redness Emma
