What is okay and what is not? Obviously i have to expect some handling of the penis if they want to do a culture, but not sure whatto watch for in that case. So far we've just kept hands-off.

The only handling they should do is to clean the tip of the penis off without retracting then flare the the foreskin just enough to see the urethral opening without pushing the skin back.

Another option is a bag it sticks to the skin around the penis.

Thank you. They did the bag, so the only handling was to wipe it clean.
