The frenum on the penis is a longitudinal skin fold. It is located on the bottom of the penis. The bridle connects the head and foreskin.
Functions
The bridle helps the foreskin return to a closed, protected position after exposing the penis head . Due to the activity of this fold, free movement of the skin is ensured. In addition, the bridle contributes to the correct position of the head during an erection.
Pathology
A short bridle in men is considered a congenital disorder. As a result, various problems may develop. A short bridle in men causes pain during sexual contact. At the same time, the more intense the movements, the stronger the pain. This is due to the fact that the bridle during the act is greatly stretched. This reason is considered one of the most common causes of coital pain in the region of the penis head.
Bleeding and rupture
During rough sexual intercourse or during sexual contact with a partner with a narrow entrance to the vagina, excessive tension of the skin folds on the penis occurs. As a result of this, it may just burst. This is a fairly frequent genital trauma in patients, accompanied not only by psychological stress, but also by heavy bleeding and severe pain. The bridle's blood supply is very good, in this regard, it is not always possible to stop the flow independently. In this case, an emergency urological care may be required.
Scar change
In the case of an independent rupture of the frenulum, too long healing, accompanied by an inflammatory process, with constant subsequent trauma to the wound due to ongoing sexual life, a gross outgrowth forms at the site of damage. As a result, the crease will become inelastic and dense. This, in turn, will contribute to the formation of cracks and the preservation of constant discomfort during sexual contact.
Irritation of the center of ejaculation
Due to the short bridle, premature ejaculation can occur. In the case of the formation of a cicatricial growth after a spontaneous rupture, numerous nerve processes connected directly with the spinal ejaculation center can be involved in this area. In such a situation, an area of pathological impulse is formed. It provokes irritation of the spinal ejaculation center and early, uncontrollable, ejaculation.
The consequences of a birth defect
The frenum on the foreskin is a very fragile formation. This mechanism may fail at any time. This skin fold has an increased level of sensitivity. This is due to the fact that in this area numerous nerve endings, lymphatic and blood vessels converge. There are many more receptors in the bridle than in the head itself. During the period of intimacy, the fold is stretched periodically, due to which the excitation intensifies 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 bridle, can cause impotence. Due to bleeding and pain, the partner, worrying about the likelihood of a break, begins to restrain himself during sexual encounters. As a result, the process of achieving his orgasm is significantly complicated not only physically, but also psychologically. As a result, this can lead to absolute erectile dysfunction.
Solution
How to stretch the bridle of the foreskin? Is it possible? There are several options to remedy the situation. One of them is the removal of the frenum of the foreskin. However, it is not always necessary to resort to this procedure. Using modern equipment, correction of the foreskin frenum is carried out today. The procedure guarantees the extension of the fold to the required size. In this case, a subtle tender scar is formed.
Plastic frenum of the foreskin
The operation is a dissection (transverse) of the skin fold and its longitudinal suturing. This allows you to lengthen it as much as necessary. Plasticity of the frenulum of the foreskin almost 100% prevents its rupture in the future. An outpatient intervention is performed. Hospitalization is not required to complete the procedure. Plastic surgery of the foreskin frenum is performed under local anesthesia. Cosmetic sutures are applied using foreign materials. They do not leave scars. Complete healing is observed after ten to twelve days. Throughout the recovery period, experts recommend that you refrain from sexual intercourse. The duration of the procedure itself, as a rule, does not exceed twenty minutes.
Operation progress
A few minutes after the administration of the anesthetic, the doctor transversely dissects the bridle with a scalpel in the transverse direction. Then a ligature is applied to the artery. Then, compression in the longitudinal direction of the edges of the formed wound is carried out. If a rough scar is detected due to breaks in the past, it is removed. At the end of the operation, a gauze roll is applied to the wound.
Special information
There are no age restrictions for the operation. Patients under twelve years of age are given intravenous anesthesia. For adults, anesthesia is administered directly to the penis. Preliminary preparation for the operation is not necessary. One of the conditions is only careful processing of the area on which the intervention will be carried out.
Finally
For any suspicious manifestations, redness, or soreness, it is necessary to visit a urologist. It is not necessary to go to extreme measures (circumcision, for example). The plastic of the frenulum of the foreskin allows you to quickly and practically without consequences correct the situation and eliminate the defect. Timely access to a doctor will allow you to maintain sexual function in normal.
