Foreskin stuck to penis head by frenulum

I'm 16 years old and for my whole life i could never really be able to pull my foreskin back fully. in the past year or so i notice that my foreskin was attached to the glans by some some sort of flesh string. i researched and found out it may be frenulum breve. since i could never pull it back as you could image there is a lot of built up smegma waiting underneath. i am confused because it looks like the skin is attached to the glans. im to shy to tell anyone and want to see if stretching will help. luckily i live in Australia and wont need to pay for surgery like frenuloplasty if it comes down to it. image

      Hello finn. This is in fact a granular breve. Stretching may work but as long as you can clean yourself and ut doesnt bother you during sex I dont think you should need a surgery. Obviously if its causing problems then yes. Dint worry about smegma- your body is built to cleanse itself. Just clean with running water(no soap!!!)

      Chances are that it is bothering you it is a straightforward procedure that can be done in an hour with minimal pain.

      I had the same issue as well and now I study that part of the body so it's safe to say that I can help. Go to a trusted adult and be seen- dont let them talk you into circumcision because that is waay overkill and very painful. When you get the frenuloplasty just refrain from sex/masterbation until it heals.

      Good luck!
