Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

The skin under my penis is a bit torn. It happened last month and again once this month. How long will it take to heal as it hurts while having sex? Please help me with this query.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I think you have a frenulum tear. It will take 4 to 6 weeks to heal. After that, I will suggest taking antibiotics, analgesics, and ointment. The important thing is you should not have sex in the period; complete rest is needed. If possible, kindly upload the photos of your lesion for better understanding and treatment advice.

Regards.
