Cut penis shaving

I got a small cut on the base of my penis where there is extra skin when I was trimming with electric clippers. It bled for a few minutes.  It appears to have healed on the outside.  Would it be obvious if this cut was worse than just superficial or skin deep? It appears to have healed fine on the outside but want to make sure I didn't damage any internal tissue or structures.

The cut is healed. If there is nothing there now, you can rest assured that there is no damaged.

If you healed fine, don't have any pain or symptoms, I think I'd not worry about this at this point.  If you have pain, swelling, it fills with pus, call your doctor.  But you sound fine to me!

Thanks for the response and a little peace of mind!  It is a scary place for a cut because the skin looks so thin and you can see veins there but the fact that it didn't bleed a lot and healed up without a noticeable scar would likely indicate it wasn't deeper than the skin right?  I think the metal guard on the clippers is supposed to protect against deeper cuts anyway
