Foreskin problem/blister on glans

DS is 6. On Sunday evening his foreskin came right back (he says he didn't do it) and wouldn't stay forward. The head if his penis looked a little swollen. We went to OOH gp Sunday night, who tried with no luck and said if its not better, return Monday morning.

Monday he had developed a blister on his glans. Saw a different OOH gp who said its fine, leave it. It got better throughout the day but this morning the blister is big again. The diesel in definitely can't come forward now due to the blister. Any ideas?

I'm going to try GP AGAIN today, or should I just be leaving it?

Not sure but I would be inclined to take him back to the GP tomorrow though. If they feel he should be fine then they must know what they're talking about (so I imagine). Unless of course it's causing him any kind of pain in which case I would bring him back.

Thank for replying. Went back to different gp today, he seemed mystified. It was the first time anyone's really looked at it properly. He talked about a small incision, yikes!

However, it now seems to have gone back to normal! Gp said he'd see him again tomorrow whether it was better or not but I think he's been saved the procedure! Phew.
