A member asked:

Why does my childs (3 year old) penis appear like its going back in?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Common finding: The fat pad on the pubic bone of many toddlers is thick enough that many worry that the penile shaft is too small or shrinking. Exam generally shows it's fine & as the pad begins to thin out in that area by 6-7 the issue disappears. I get a similar question in the office several times a year.
