The frenulum connecting the glans to the foreskin is short, causing the glans to be retracted after the penis is erect.

Patient's question:

Connection between the glans and the foreskin is short, causing the head of the penis to bend downward after erection, what to do???

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Excessive foreskin prevents the secretions of sebaceous glands under the foreskin from being expelled, gradually forming foul-smelling smegma. Smegma is conducive to bacterial growth, which can lead to inflammation of the glans penis and foreskin. Inflammation at the urethral orifice, if not healed properly, may cause narrowing of the urethral orifice, resulting in difficulty urinating. Long-term stimulation of the glans penis by smegma may also lead to penile cancer. At the same time, it makes sexual intercourse more prone to injury.
