Skin Bridge On Penis

That's crazy. I would never suggest cutting into yourself at home. Maybe if you are a doctor and know what you are doing. Maybe. But otherwise, absolutely not.

If you are underage and do not want to talk to your parents about it, you should probably wait until you are old enough to have it done all on your own.

Other than that, all that I can tell you is that as a woman, I honestly cannot imagine that bothering me in a lover, so don't do it just to impress anyone.

How might I set up an arrangement for an operation for removal of the skin bridge? Do I just talk to my doctor or are there certain doctors who specialize in this?

I would talk to your regular doctor first. I would think there is a good chance he can take care of it. If he can't for whatever reason, you might need him to refer you to someone who can. So either way, I think your regular doctor is going to be your best bet.

if you take the skin off it hurts alottttt and it takes 2 years for the skin to look normal even if its done and it dosnt hurt you still have a scar ans its ugly

Im a 23yo male & only just discovered what a skin bridge was 2 weeks ago. I have 2, one on the side (larger one) & 1 on the back - both connecting the head to the shaft. I really didn't want to talk to my doctor about it but did & Im now booked in for surgery in 2 weeks. Its a local anesthetic (they put you to sleep) and its day surgery. I understand not wanting to tell your parents & I have kept this to myself aswell. The skin bridges have caused me to be really self concious about my dick & im sure you're all in the same boat. Think about it - 5 min of being embarassed with your doctor & you'll never have to worry about it again! I'm looking forward to getting it done!

I''m a 42 year old man and have several skin bridges on my penis. I just recently discovered the actual term for them. Although I have been sometimes self-aware of them, I can assure it has never really been an issue for any sexual partner; only once or twice was I questioned. Now that I''m middle-aged, I wish I had them corrected when I was younger, because, with constant use, the surrounding skin starts to sort of look flabby. I''m considering getting it corrected.

I am a 28 year old man and also recently discovered the term for the skin that was connected to the head of my penis making some erections and wearing a condom painful. I finally decided to contact a local urologist to have my 2 skin bridges removed. My procedure was done on 4/22/10. The cost was a little pricey without insurance, $200 for the initial consulation and a little over $1750 for the procedure. It was relatively painless, with the majority of discomfort taking place in the days after the procedure with certain movements. I am looking forward to healing quickly and going about my business, but would like to comment on the post from orlandowts. I do understand that any operation on the penis or area around it is a little tedious, but dealing with this problem, especially if it is painful or holding back your full erection, is something that everyone must take into context. Sure, it will take a couple of weeks to heal (NOT 2 years, and after only 4 days the healing that has taken place is quite reassuring). I believe that each situation is unique and a consultation with a professional and not someone who has no idea what they are talking about is the better choice. Good luck bridgetonowhere.

Hello,yeah adhesions and skin bridges seems to be quite commen. At least adhesions so I don't understand why we didn't get informed of that so we could have prevented it. I am so worried about this and scared that we have ruined things for him and that this surgery could go wrong in some way not worth the risk and pain he went thru and all the worrying and crying on my part.

I have to get this surgery soon too and I was wondering if the nurses have to see your penis as well as the doctor? That could be quite distressing. Also, when you make your appointment to see a urologist and she asks what you are coming in for what should you say to not get too embarrassed? Do you just pull your pants down when the doctor gets in the room (how awkward!)? I have been procrastinating for about a year in making this appointment because I am very nervous about someone (or more than one person, one of them being a woman nurse) inspecting my defected penis. What is the recovery time? Will you get a bigger erection if these are removed? Will there be scars? Pardon all my questions but I would be very happy if you could answer them all! Im 22 btw
