: I hesitate to ask this because of the possibility of

: information on penile prolapse in a 18mo old sulcata.
: It started prolapsing two months ago on an occational basis
: and he remained able to retract it fully. REcently he has o
: not retracted it completely for several days. I am curious
: to know if this is a behavioral problem or a medical one.
: I don't want him to lose his penis over a behavioral
: problem. Any serious information would be greatly appriciated.

Can't tell for sure, but, its usually a medical problem. Either way a trip to the vet is recommended.
