The frenulum on the penis is a longitudinal skin fold. It is located on the bottom of the penis. The frenulum connects the glans and foreskin.
Functions
The frenulum promotes the return of the foreskin to a closed, protected position after the head of the penis is exposed. Due to the activity of this fold, free movement of the skin is ensured. In addition, the frenulum helps to take the correct position of the head during an erection.
Pathologies
A short frenulum in men is considered a congenital disorder. As a result, various problems may develop. A short frenulum in men is the cause of soreness during sexual contact. In this case, the more intense the movements, the stronger the pain. This is due to the fact that the frenulum during the act is greatly stretched. This cause is considered one of the most common causes of coital pain in the head of the penis.
Bleeding and rupture
When violent intercourse or sexual contact with a partner who has a narrow entrance to the vagina, there is an excessive tension of the skinfolds on the penis. As a result, it can simply break. This is a fairly common genital injury in patients, accompanied not only by psychological stress, but also by profuse bleeding and severe pain. The supply of the frenulum with blood is very good, in connection with this, it is not always possible to stop the flow on its own. In this case, emergency urological care may be required.
Cicatricial change
In case of independent rupture of the frenulum, too long healing, accompanied by an inflammatory process, with constant subsequent traumatization of the wound due to continued sexual activity, a coarse outgrowth forms at the site of injury. As a result, the fold will become inelastic and dense. This, in turn, will contribute to the formation of cracks and constant discomfort during sexual contact.
Irritation of the ejaculatory center
Because of the short frenulum, premature ejaculation may occur. In the case of the formation of a scar growth after a spontaneous rupture, numerous nerve processes connected directly with the spinal ejaculatory center may be involved in this area. In such a situation, an area of \u200b\u200bpathological impulses is formed. It provokes irritation of the spinal ejaculatory center and early uncontrollable ejaculation.
Consequences of a birth defect
The frenulum on the foreskin is a very fragile formation. This mechanism can fail at any time. This skin fold has an increased level of sensitivity. This is due to the fact that it is in this area that numerous nerve endings, lymphatic and blood vessels converge. There are many more receptors in the frenulum than in the head itself. During intimacy, the fold stretches periodically, due to which arousal increases and the onset of orgasm accelerates. This strip of skin largely determines the normal functioning of the organ. Early ejaculation, provoked by defects in the frenulum, can cause impotence. Due to bleeding and pain, the partner, worried about the likelihood of a break, begins to restrain himself during sexual intimacy. As a result, the process of achieving orgasm is significantly more complicated not only physically, but also psychologically. As a result, this can lead to absolute erectile dysfunction.
Problem Solving
How to stretch the frenulum of the foreskin? Is it possible? There are several options for correcting the situation. One of them is the removal of the frenulum of the foreskin. However, it is not always necessary to resort to this procedure. With the use of modern equipment, correction of the frenulum of the foreskin is carried out today. The procedure guarantees the elongation of the fold to the required size. In this case, an inconspicuous gentle scar is formed.
Plastic frenulum foreskin
The operation is a dissection (transverse) of the skin fold and its longitudinal suturing. This allows it to be extendedas much as needed. The plasticity of the frenulum of the foreskin almost 100% prevents its rupture in the future. The intervention is carried out on an outpatient basis. Hospitalization is not required for the procedure. Plastic surgery of the frenulum of the foreskin is performed under local anesthesia. Cosmetic sutures are applied using foreign-made materials. They don't leave scars. Complete healing is noted after ten to twelve days. Throughout the recovery period, experts recommend abstaining from sexual contact. The duration of the procedure itself, as a rule, does not exceed twenty minutes.
Progress of operation
A few minutes after the injection of the anesthetic, the doctor cuts the frenulum transversely with a scalpel. Then a ligature is applied to the artery. Then, the edges of the resulting wound are compressed in the longitudinal direction. If a rough scar is found due to ruptures that have occurred in the past, it is removed. At the end of the operation, a gauze roller is applied to the wound.
Special Information
There are no age restrictions for the operation. Patients under the age of twelve are given intravenous anesthesia. For adults, anesthesia is injected directly into the penis. There is no need to pre-prepare for the operation. One of the conditions is only a thorough treatment of the area on which the intervention will be carried out.
In conclusion
For any suspicious manifestations, redness or soreness, it is necessaryvisit a urologist. It is not necessary to go to extreme measures (circumcision, for example). Plastic surgery of the frenulum of the foreskin allows you to quickly and practically without consequences correct the situation and eliminate the defect. A timely visit to a doctor will help maintain normal sexual functions.
