1. What is the frenulum?

There is a skin fold connecting the glans and the penis body in the middle of the lower part of the penis, called the frenulum. Due to the different development of the penis, the length and tightness of the frenulum are also different. If it is short and tight, the glans will bend downward during erection, and it may be torn due to excessive force during sexual intercourse, causing bleeding and pain.

2. What to do if the frenulum is ruptured

After the frenulum of foreskin is torn, it is not necessary to suture it to restore it to its original state. Generally, simple pressure is only applied to stop bleeding. It is best to clean it, disinfect it, and bandage it to prevent infection. It will heal after three or four days of rest. In order to prevent the wound from tearing again, sexual intercourse is prohibited within one week. If the bleeding does not stop, go to the hospital. The place where the frenulum of foreskin connects to the glans penis is broken. Pay attention to keeping the wound clean. You can use iodine or chlorhexidine to disinfect it until the wound heals. The rupture of the frenulum of foreskin will not only not affect the future sexual life, but because the tension around the glans penis tends to be even during erection, it will make sexual intercourse smoother and easier to get pleasure.

3. Will a broken frenulum affect the sensitivity of the penis?

If the frenulum at the connection between the glans and the penis body is broken, it will not affect erection and will not affect erection in the future. However, if the frenulum at the penis body is completely broken, it will affect erection and need to be sutured. The sensitivity of the penis is mainly due to the dorsal nerve on the back of the penis. The frenulum is only a partial damage to the superficial nerve endings, which has no effect on the sensitivity of the penis. Some patients with premature ejaculation can undergo dorsal nerve block surgery to reduce the sensitivity of the glans and prolong the duration of sexual intercourse, that is, surgically cut the dorsal nerve.
