Penile Skin Bridge

 

Morning


IYKYK



In case you don't read the comments, the foreskin mystery from last week's post How Common was solved. What the Reader saw on his friend's cock at the gym is a Skin Bridge.

And, apparently, it is not all that common among adult men.


This can occur at any point along the glans.


According to the Cleveland Clinic:

  • Penile skin bridge. This is a thicker, more permanent attachment. It occurs when the skin on the shaft attaches to the coronal margin. The coronal margin is the round border near the tip of the penis. A penile skin bridge usually needs treatment.


A penile skin bridge, also known as a penile adhesion, is a band of skin that connects the shaft of the penis to the head (glans)These can develop after circumcision, but can also occur in uncircumcised males. They can form due to incomplete separation of the foreskin or from injury to the glans during healing. While often asymptomatic, they can cause discomfort or irritation, especially during erections. Treatment typically involves separating the skin bridge, often through a minor surgical procedure. 

Applying a steroid cream is typically the first choice of treatment if the bridge causes discomfort or pain during an erection. If that doesn't resolve the issue, a minor surgery can separate it from the head, or remove it.




Big Thanks go to Anonymous and Everett, who both helped to solve the mystery.

Somehow, I just do not correlate Rachel Maddow to Penile Skin Bridge...

On the road traveling. Trying to escape the constant ugly news, it’s not working. It’s like a fire hose. Hugs and bisous.

I know, I just felt like I needed to place it there for a reminder as to WHY my mood is so dark right now.

whkattk said...

That it is! Rachel finally put it all in place: "It's not coming, it's here."
Hugs and bisous.

whkattk said...

Exactly. There could be someone with a skin bridge too embarrassed to ask a doctor. If they see this post, now they'll know.
XOXO

Sure glad you're okay. You haven't commented even on the giggles. I was beginning to worry.
Hugs and bisous.

And I should've put in a separator. Which I just did.

Important not to confuse a skin bridge with the frenulum! The doctor who trimmed me (as an infant) left me with a nice frenulum!

Not only do you provide a great amount of eye candy, your blog is also a source of education. I had never heard of such a thing. Now I know, who knew!

Another case solved!!!!! And yes, when I read blogs I also love reading the comments. It like more views and sometimes the comments are so fun as the post itself.

I have a slightly weird question, I had a weird dream where I cut of my dick at the base and then later on i reattached it by simply holding at the base and it re attached, now I want to make it clear and I’m not trying to show off here but I love having a dick and I make very good use of it, my question is how common is it to have dreams like this, is it a sign of ill health like when you hear stories about people having nightmares or bad dreams about a particular part of their body and then they discover that they actually have a problem there, I take good care of my body and the dream wasen’t even a nightmare it was just one of those weird abstract dreams, sorry for the long question I was just curious about the meaning of the dream.

whkattk said...

Right? I sure hope any surgeon working on the dick would know to leave that vital stretch of skin intact.

whkattk said...

It's why I do the blog.... Sure, the candy is enjoyed by all, but I hope the info helps folks, too.

whkattk said...

I always return to blogs to read the comments and replies. They can be helpful, and funny!

Freud would've said that you ***think*** you may hate your dick and have a wish to cut it off. Yet, you ***know*** deep down that you really treasure it and the pleasure it brings.

whkattk said...

Oops, didn't mean to hit publish there.
But....it would not hurt to have a very complete physical, head to toes and everything in between. And I do mean ***everything***.
