Hi I'm Chris and I'm 18 years old, I've been realizing this weird pain when I pull my foreskin back to far. I did some research and they say it's Frenulum Breve, but I looked at pictures and I don't seem to have it that bad, cause it doesn't hurt when i get erect only when i bring the tissue back to far..I'm not circumcised and I'm pretty lost. I don't know who to call or anything, I live in the Montreal area. If anyone could give me some advice I'd be really happy.. Thanks

Chris.

From the sounds of it I had the same problem as you. I shown it the docter and I was cercumcised 6 weeks ago. Go to your docter and have it checked out.

don't listen to this guy, you don't need to get circumcized for frenulum breve; there's tons of info on the web, both forums and medical literature;

try stretching it and if that alone doesn't fix the problem, there's a very uncomplicated surgical procedure designed especially for that (it's nothing like circumcision); i live in new york and they charge $1000 for that.

Have you seen his penis....no. I didn;t say he needed a cercumcision. I think he should go see a docter. He may have a really short frenulem breve and tight fore skin.

With my problem these are the docters words "you'd be stupid not to have a cercumcision" So depending on his condition he may very well need to have a cercumcision. If he has to pay thousands then unlucky. Here in england its FREE didn't cost me nothing up front. taxes NHS cover all that.

Can you pull the foreskin completely over the head of the penis? If the foreskin retracts normally then I don't think you have anything to worry about. I think any guy would be in pain if he kept pulling back on his foreskin... Now if you mean you can't get it over the head of the penis or if once it's there, only a little tug causes pain, then that is something to have a doctor look at.

so what if a doctor told you to do it? that doesn't mean shi*, really ! my friend, they're not geniuses, they just had the patience to go through medical school...

i'm glad to hear the circumcision ended up being the right thing to do in your case and you're happy with the results; but hey, why cut the leg if you can just cut the nail ?

I think if the docter and a urologist advises you to have it done it dose mean anything. Specially if you also feel the same way and it causes problems and theres no other away around it accept live with the discomfort or have the op.

I just think Chriss34 should go see a docter.

I agree. Doctors aren't simply people who had the patience to go to medical school, and it bothers me how many people have no respect to the few people in our nation who can save their lives when they are in danger.
