The product, in the report: Swim Trunks
My son went swimming at the beach . He went to remove his swim truncks and couldn’t due to his genital area being stuck to the mesh lining in the swim trunk. My son had to use the restroom and couldn’t because the “area” was stuck and “sealed”. I had to rush my son to the hospital the area was extremely swollen , irritated and has a visible swore on it. Luckily, my son is ok now after being rushed to the hospital and is in the process of healing. As per the nurses and doctors at the hospital he was not the first to have this occur. They stated that there has been a great deal of people ranging in age being seen for the same issue. Some have been so extreme that an injection in the “area” is required in order to remove the mesh lining.
I know this may sound silly, but my 5 year old is traumatized from this experience and is still trying to heal. Please look into the matter seriously.
