A member asked:
Noticed my 1 month old grandson's penis tip turn slightly blueish/purple. is this normal or shall i be concerned?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not to be concerned.: Typically due to circumcision, the glans or tip is visible. That area has a purple hue. It is the uncircumcised retracted skin that can cause problems, in a condition called phimosis. This is ok as long there is no tenderness.
