I'm a bit concerned about my 4-month-old baby. He's up to date with all his vaccinations up to his 16-week mark. Could you let me know which vaccines hell need once he hits 6 months?

Persistent meatus swelling with unusual coloration.

Given your treatment history and normal test results (urine routine & culture, ultrasound), consider the following possibilities:

1. Chronic inflammation: Prolonged inflammation might be causing the swelling and discoloration.
2. Vascular anomalies: Abnormal blood vessels could be contributing to the dark blue color.
3. Meatus stenosis: Narrowing of the meatus might be causing swelling and discomfort.

Discuss the following with your surgeon:

1. Biopsy: To rule out underlying conditions like cancer or granulomas.
2. Doppler ultrasound: To evaluate blood flow and potential vascular anomalies.
3. Alternative treatments: Consider options like corticosteroid injections or topical creams to reduce inflammation.

Seek a second opinion from a urologist if you're not satisfied with your current treatment progress.
