Phimosis or Frenulum Brave Issue?! (Pictures)

Posted , 7 users are following.

This discussion has been locked due to a period of inactivity.

Ive always thought that I may have has some form of phimosis and that with some cream treatment it would loosen up and be ok. However as my foreskin has loosened up I now think that the main cause to my problems may be that I have a short Frenulum.

This makes me nervous about persuing any sexual encounters as the only time I have ever has sex I tore my Frenulum.

Any help would be greatly appriciated.

    Hi Luke, please don't despair. There may be a reasonably straightforward treatment for you. When I saw your photo on the left it looks clear that you do have Frenulum Breve (note the spelling). wink

    My immediate thought for a solution was frenuloplasty, but I wanted to sure so I Iooked it up - and lo and behold I found the following link!. It's a well written and very helpful article which I'm sure you'll find helpful.

    Luke, my reply is being moderated because it includes a link. I hope it's accepted and will apear tomorrow. I too would have sent you a PM, but couldn't find an option to do that.

    Kolonelgreen, can you help me?

    Thanks, that link was really insightful. I am planning on seeing my GP, however I worry how long a waiting list would be for such a procedure.  I would just like this to be put right ASAP.

      When you see your GP he or she may refer you to a urologist first. This is what my doctor did after she examined the state of my foreskin following a frightening incident of paraphimosis. Sadly I had to be circumcised - but it was done within three weeks.

      It's probably best that if you mention frenuloplasty you only do so tentatively because doctors quite rightly must make a diagnosis of their own first.

      Please keep us up to date, Luke. I wish you a speedy and successful conclusion to your problem.

    You have nice penis. Just wait as much as possible. Don't go under cut so easy. I'm so sad that I've done it to me.

    Hi, I have been searching for some info/help regarding my tight foreskin, and found this forum. I notice that the thread is two years old though, so I'm not sure if it's still active. Also, is it OK to post photos? Many thanks, David.
