My 3-year-old son has a small part of the foreskin attached to the glans on one side, approximately 25% of the area. The small line-like structure I mentioned is also present exactly in that attached area.
He has no pain or discomfort and passes urine normally.
Could this be normal foreskin or any evaluation needed ? What exactly could this line-like structure be? Does it require any treatment, or could u please tell me the name of condition
I ve attached the photo

Greetings
In uncircumcised toddlers, this appearance strongly resembles a physiological preputial adhesion or a prominent midline penile frenulum.
These structures are normal developmental features, and the foreskin typically separates naturally over time without treatment.
Other less likely possibilities include an accessory frenulum or minor inflammatory adhesions.
