Yes, the penis should be washed in the bath or shower by simply pulling back your foreskin and washing the head with soap and warm water, just like the rest of the body. Keep in mind that many boys can't pull their foreskin back until puberty, and this is completely normal. The head of the penis doesn't need to be washed until the foreskin can be pulled back, so parents of young children with non-retractible foreskins can wait until it can retract to teach your son about washing the head daily. If you're a teenager or adult and your foreskin is too tight to be pulled back, you might want to consider gradually stretching. Just search for "How do you stretch your foreskin?" on Wikianswers.

How do men clean their penises?

Keeping penis clean is very important. 1.) Gently pull the foreskin back. 2.) Rinse with warm water only. Soap under the foreskin can cause irritation and swelling. 3.) Pull the foreskin back in place over the head of your penis. Circumcised men can directly use warm water and soap and clean it carefully.

How do you treat a circumcised baby?

Never pull the infant's foreskin back. This can cause serious injury and tissue damage. Boys' foreskins will naturally retract on their own, which may be as late as the teenage years. The skin actually protects from dirt and bacteria. However, if the penis gets red or white stuff develops inside the foreskin, use a little bit of palmers coco butter.
