skin bridge

[Dimitrije]

I developed a skin bridge when I was sixteen years old (a delayed complication, I understand, from circumcision).  Unfortunately the "bridge" is my frenulum and it doesn't feel right.  Because I'd rather not have my frenulum removed I'm curious whether there are alternatives to excision to treat the skin bridge.  I feel like the skin tries to heal (close up), but can't.  But  I don't know if skin is capable of this kind of healing or, if so, what kind of procedure could address the original cause of the skin bridge.  Do you know of any such procedure?

Thank you

If the skin or frenulum is too tight, gently stretching the area on a regular basis should loosen up the skin after a while. You may want to research techniques used to resolve cases of phimosis without surgery - similar actions can be used to expand skin that's too tight on a circumcised penis.

Hello,
This can be due to frenulum breve or adhesion formations. It is a condition in which the frenulum of the penis is short and restricts the movement of the prepuce, which may interfere with normal sexual activity.It is treated by frenuloplasty, frenectomy, or circumcision. All these are surgical procedures and unfortunately there is no topical or oral treatment for this.

I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
