1 Answer

A. Swelling of a newborn baby's genitals, particularly in boys, is a common occurrence and is usually normal. This swelling is often due to maternal hormones that cross the placenta and affect the baby's body. It can lead to the following:
1. **Swollen Scrotum (Hydrocele):** In male infants, the scrotum (the sac containing the testicles) may appear enlarged due to the accumulation of fluid. This condition is known as a hydrocele. It's typically harmless and tends to resolve on its own within a few months.
2. **Swollen Labia (Vaginal Swelling):** In female infants, the labia (the outer folds of the genital area) may appear swollen. This is also a result of maternal hormones and usually resolves without any treatment.
3. **Breast Enlargement (Breast Bud):** Both male and female infants can sometimes develop small breast buds due to hormonal influence. These can appear as small, firm lumps under the nipples and are temporary.
While these instances of swelling are often normal and temporary, it's still essential to consult with a pediatrician or healthcare provider to confirm the cause and rule out any other potential concerns. In some cases, there may be other underlying issues that need to be addressed. Always seek professional medical advice to ensure the health and well-being of your newborn.
