¿Question #4980?
Randy Cox: Ever heard of a meotomy? (that's what the pediatrician called it 19 years ago when Son #1 had to have the procedure done--and it's something I didn't even deal with at all)

ocdspectrum: Apparently it happens to about 20% of circumcised males.
popsicola: Nope
Woelf: Thanks for making me Google that!
bobondi: no
MisterCranky: What does that mean you didn't even deal with it?
mileser: No.
BrouHaHa: No
vandemonium: No and I am feeling far too lazy to look it up and come up with anything to say about it.
ZeroZilla: Does Son #1 know that you're willing to describe (in some detail) his childhood trauma for the entertainment of strangers? Would it make him feel any better to know that most of us are perfectly willing to describe our own trauma to (virtual) strangers?
Kibbersdog: no
DHEK: Never heard of it. Don't even know what that is.
Daklu: Not before this question. Googled it (myotomy) and found it was a surgical procedure in which muscle is cut. My life has meaning now that I know what myotomy is.
POvidiusNaso: I never did.
seppo21: Despite having heard of many of the various -otomy's out there, this is not one of them.

davebo: I've heard of a "meatotomy".
erli: Are you on crack?
skelebone: No, I've never heard of one of those.
tragicpoet: Is that where you have yourself removed?
puffinge: Ok, now I really need to know how to get vomit out of a keyboard. But, hey, I have an enlarged penis opening too!
Randy Cox: OK. Here goes. When Son #1 was about 5 or 6, he was having a little difficulty urinating. He'd produce a potent, yet thin, stream and wouldn't always "finish". The pediatrician was an older gent who said, "we need to do a meotomy" (right there in the office). He injected the head of his penis with some sort of numbing stuff and proceded to clip the opening to enlarge it. This necessitated squeezing antibiotic ointment into the opening for several days afterwards. There you go.
