What is the coronal groove?

The coronal sulcus is called the neck of the penis, which is a groove-shaped structure at the lower edge of the glans penis. The coronal sulcus can be seen after the foreskin is turned back. The front end of the foreskin will be retracted in the coronal sulcus. Because this area is easily stimulated by the foreskin, sometimes if the foreskin is too long, the coronal sulcus will be wrapped by the foreskin for a long time, which can easily form smegma and cause inflammation. Let's take a look at this aspect.

What is the coronal groove?

The coronal sulcus, the common name for the penis neck, is a groove-like structure at the lower edge of the glans of the male penis. When the foreskin is turned back, the ring-shaped narrowing area behind the glans can be seen, which is called the coronal sulcus. It is formed at the base of the glans when the front end of the urethral corpus cavernosum swells into the glans. It is a very sensitive part of the penis. Stimulating this area through sexual intercourse or masturbation can lead to orgasm and ejaculation. The normal color is red with a slight purple tint.

What is the coronal sulcus?

The skin outside the penis is called foreskin. If the penis is erect, the foreskin still covers the penis, and the glans is not fully exposed, but the foreskin can be easily turned up to expose the glans, this situation is called "phimosis"; if the foreskin cannot be turned up (or it is very painful to turn it up), or it cannot be turned up completely, that is, the glans cannot be fully exposed, it is called "phimosis". The former is not a big problem, just pay attention to turning it up frequently and cleaning the glans and coronal sulcus. But for the latter, you should go to the hospital for a circumcision to make the glans completely exposed. To achieve a perfect effect.

Related surgery

There are many ways to perform circumcision, but they all involve cutting the foreskin that is too long surgically, laser cutting, necrotizing it with an O-ring, removing it with a high-frequency electric knife, or cutting it with adhesives to seal the wound. When it comes to cutting, it is essentially not done with a surgical blade, but with a pre-designed cut and retention that is squeezed with surgical forceps, and the excess is cut off with surgical scissors.

Then 4 stitches are sutured in the middle to close the skin, and the operation is completed. The whole operation usually takes about 15 minutes. No hospitalization or intravenous antibiotics are required. For those who are worried about infection, some amoxicillin can be used as a preventive measure. The key is that the surgical design must take into account aesthetics and sex appeal. If necessary, the dressing can be changed 1-2 times, and the stitches can be removed in one week.
