Banjostring

    Hi guys,

    I've been seeing a guy for about 2 months and about 5 weeks ago we were messing around. We were quite drunk and I guess we were being fairly rough. Anyway, we're in the middle of shagging when suddenly he's bent over in pain and there's blood everywhere. He spent the whole next day in A&E but was told by the Doctor that it would heal naturally in a wek or two. Bascially he had torn the string that connects the helmet to the shaft. Ouch, poor ****er!! Anyway, last weekend we were messing around again and we weren't even being that rough when it happened again! It had been about 3 weeks since it initially tore so maybe it just wasn't fully healed or something.

    My question is, has this happened to any of you before and if so how long did it take to heal? Did it heal naturally or did you have to get the snip as has been suggested to me.

    Sorry it's a kinda tender topic but if you've experience of this please help as it's really frustrating and very painful (for him) Thanks!!

    Takes bout 6 weeks to 2 months to heal properly so looks like it'll be a quiet few weeks for the pair of you!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,919 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Lol all I can say is "Ouch"! Just leave the poor guy alone for a few weeks til he recovers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,624 ✭✭✭Dancor


    Snip ftw


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 166,026 ✭✭✭✭LegacyUser


    Happen to me aswell a few years back, exactly the same situation. Tried shagging again about a month later and it happened again. Ended up having to wait about 8 weeks then caus i was nervous of it happening a 3rd time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,217 ✭✭✭pookie82


    Happened to a mate of mine (well, to her boyfriend). You need to give it longer than three weeks....Let the poor guy heal!!! I'd give it at least six, maybe longer. If he has no objections to the snip it might be the way to go.

    Will people please learn that "The Snip" is a vasectomy, not circumcision...? Biiiiiiig difference.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,857 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    AGGHHHHH!!!!!!!

    Leave the man alone, if it happens again he'll probably never want to have sex again!

    Ouch. Mega ouch.

    the thought of that is enough to be celibate.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    I didn't even know this could happen. Ouch. Definitely leave him alone for a while.

    Jesus I can't imagine going for it the third time after two bleeders. That's some scary ****, OP!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,367 ✭✭✭✭watna


    Happened to a guy I know while he was working abroad and his little friend was being quite active with all the ladies. As far as I heard it took two months to get back to normal (isn't it weird the things you know about your friends?!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Happened to a mate and he didn't let her touch him for months after :D

    Ouch!!!! Sounds like a more common thing than I thought it was.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,505 ✭✭✭irlirishkev


    Yep, happened to a mate of mine years back, while his big armed girlfriend was milking him off..

    He ended up having to get his hood removed.

    Careful girls!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 829 ✭✭✭MattKid


    Happened to a friend of mine in the back of his car when he was cheating on his girlfriend. That took some explaining.

    You might want to try kissing it better

    Ehhhh no. Getting a circumcision because of this, would be like cutting your head off because of a headache.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    I dont think i have seen a thread with so many "it happended too a mate of mine..." posts before.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,673 ✭✭✭Miss Fluff


    Happened to a guy I was with (while with him) and there was blood EVERYWHERE.:eek: Very traumatic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,829 ✭✭✭JackieChan


    LOL, I remember this happened to me years ago when I first became sexually active. As I remember I became faint due to blood loss(although there could have been a bit of this http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=6EElqrgk4N0 about it ). Poor little bunny!
    Took a break for a few weeks and grand since!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 82 ✭✭Mister Fister


    Yep happened to me a few years back, dry humpin out in the smoking section, walked back into the boozer and didnt really notice until someone pointed out all the blood down the leg of my jeans.

    I didnt really let it heal because 2 weeks later it was bleedin again (actual humping no dry stuff) now i just have a floppy bit of skin that should be attached to the hemlet, but it isnt. Doesnt interfere with me interfering with anyone or interfering with myself :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,893 ✭✭✭Canis Lupus


    Gawd. I'd probably be too scared to use it after it happening twice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,528 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    This is freaking me out. I'm not high on the actual anatomy of the penis. This only happen to guys who have not been circumcised?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 263 ✭✭Aura


    Happened with a guy I went out with. Hats off to him though he was back in the saddle in no time!! Day or two max as I remember..

    Lot of blood vessels down there hence the alarming amount of blood!

    Maybe you should, as suggested, gently kiss it better.

    ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 378 ✭✭james123


    Yeah happened to me twice aswell the first time i nearly died i thought it was going to drop off lots of blood very painful to touch it does take longer than 2 weeks to heal just be very careful for a month or two, its very common not a big deal

    Me neither! 'Tis kinda mesmerising in a horrific kind of way...

    All I can say is go easy on the poor bloke, gotta be traumatic enough bleeding from there without the added embarassment of your girlfriend seeing it!

    Can't see why it couldn't happen to circumcised penis, that part of the skin is still there.

    Exactly, circumcision status is irrelevant, surely?

    I thought so. The bango string is the long veiny type thing that runs down the penis, no? (maybe wrong?!)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,942 ✭✭✭missingtime


    Edit: Ah i cant explain it properly....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,857 ✭✭✭✭Dave!


    It's called the frenulum, google image it if you're confused.... Not safe for work.......

    No, its a little piece of skin that connects the foreskin to the main shaft of the penis. You usually can't see it on an uncircumcised man until you pull the foreskin back. I don't know whether it's still on a circumcised man or not.

    The easiest way for a woman to see what its like is there's a very similar piece of skin (a frenum) connecting the gum above your two front teeth to your lip. If you push your tongue up in front of your teeth the little bit of skin joining your lip and gum that you touch is a frenum very similar to one a man has in his penis.

    Ah, I learned something new today!

    For once, for biological reasons, I'm glad I'm a woman!

    First of all. Don't be freaked out. It's quite common. Happened to me too.

    Secondly, if he's feeling embarassed about it, he has no need. And reassure him.

    When it happened me 7/8 years ago, I bled so much that the blood went all the way through the mattress and onto the floor beneath the bed.

    We were freaked. I thought my girlfriend at the time had some miscarriage or something but then when I went to the toilet it stung bad so we knew it was me. We were going to go to casualty as there was so much blood.

    Mine healed within a couple of weeks but some cuts are deeper than others obviously.

    Tell him take it easy, remind him that it's common as muck and ye'll be back ridin in no time. The wait will make it even better.

    Good luck.

    Thanks for all the replies guys, worst part of it is I'm not even his girlfriend! This happened the third time we'd ever shagged. There was so much blood but I tried to act really casual to stop him from freaking out. Fair play to him, he handled it really well. We fell asleep and when we woke up his boxers where soaked through!! Things liek that always look worse than they are though, I just feel really bad about it and my friends keep slagging saying stuff like...'And are u sure you weren't smuggling razor blades up there?'...or 'Are you going to Electric Picnic, I hear there's a great band playing called Laura and her banjo string'..
    Bastards!!

    Now that i've educated myself a bit better it is indeed still there however it is much thinner than in a couple of the pictures i've seen and quite frankly im surprised it has survived.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 68 ✭✭NukeD4


    Cant really speak for people who were circumcised at birth but the majority of adult circumcisions would remove the frenulum, no need for it after circumcision


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 68 ✭✭NukeD4


    Also having a circumcision isnt bad advice because as far as i know this has increased chances of happen with a short frenulum or tight foreskin


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,566 ✭✭✭GrumPy


    Ehh, a circumcision removes the foreskin of the penis, therefore the banjostring is off course removed? It connects the head of the penis to the foreskin, hence not there if the foreskin is not there.
    :rolleyes:

    Careful now, or people might decide that you've let your name slip ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,535 ✭✭✭Radharc na Sleibhte


    This thread is making me shudder.
    I have never experienced this, and by jaysus by the sounds of things, I hope I never do.
