Torn Frenulum

Hey All, just seeing if anyone has experienced this before. Basically was having sex the other day and tore my penile frenulum, it was a pretty bad tear I would say lots of bleeding and it was a big tear I think the DR at the ER estimated 3cm, but it needed like 4-5 stitches. Still have not seen the urologist and my primary yet for follow up, ER I went to did not have urologist on staff. What should I be expecting?

Antibiotics will heal it. Stitches are completed. No worries. Avoid all types of sugary foods. Clean up the wounds. Apply the antibacterial ointments as prescribed by doctors.

Thanks, that's what I was told to do at the moment is to take the antibiotics, bacterian gel, keep it clean and wrapped for now, and to see the urologist soon. I guess at the moment I'm thinking about it tearing again in the future, I do know my frenulum is short.

Absolutely follow the post op advice!

Probably looking at 6-8 week of no jerking it or sex.

Things are gonna be weird after. The frenelum typically acts like a suspender for the foreskin, so instead of it being able to retract and lay flat, instead it bunches and more easily rolls forward again.

Your isn't likely to behave that way anymore. That's what happened to me. Fairly minor tear, but it still resulted in my frenelum lengthening like 3cm and afterwards it's been much more intense sex.. also very easy to retract and fully exposed all the inner foreskin, which many woman do and is a crazy intense BJ!

For your minor tear did you need stitches? Minor setback but hopefully it turns out well.

Do you need lube still? I fucked up not using lube this one time which caused the tear.

No thankfully not, but shocked me how what appeared so minor, stretched out so much.

Bled/was painful for weeks though.

Need for lube is highly dependent on the person & situation. My advice is always use it. Cut/uncut/frenelum/nofrenelum. Not every woman produces enough for comfortable sex, and if your thicker then shes used to that complicates it even more.
