This is a condition that is specific for boys. The anomaly is always present from birth, and in most cases is without any symptoms till about 2 - 3 years. In this anomaly, the external urinary meatus is not at the tip of the penis as is normal. The meatus is on
the underside of the penis and can be seen at various sites - just below the normal site; in the shaft of the penis; at the junction of the penis and the scrotum; or even at the base of the scrotum. This abnormality should be easily noticed by the parents and a doctor must be consulted.
