Penis Glans Issues - Sex Pain Tearing

Fatman Scoop

This might be one for "embarrassing bodies"...

In recent times I've had quite an issue with sex and pain. Where my foreskin is attached to the glans kinda sheared, the skin tore all around the head. Not the 'banjo string', but rather the whole way around. Like sex was too dry and friction tore it a bit, but sex wasn't actually too dry. It took weeks for this to heal right, it was 'glistening' and slightly oozing clear liquid, like a layer of skin had been removed, and as a result I now have a small thin band of scar tissue right where foreskin connects to glans.

I'd live with this no problem if that was the extent of it. It's tiny. I've had sex several times since and each time it ends up being painful as either it re-tears partially, or friction causes issues where the penis behind foreskin reddens and gets very tender. Balinitis has also suddenly happened a few times in recent times.

I don't know what the hell to do about this. My wife is now a bit afraid of sex in case she hurts me, or wants sex and I feel crap because my red sore penis head isn't able for it.

I know boards blah blah medical advice. Just, has anybody had issues like this before, did it heal, or need intervention of some sort. I might just need to stop using it for a long time and see if that helps. My wife asked me to go see a doctor, but I feel like a plank going in to pull out my penis and peel back foreskin and say here look at this red sore thing and tell me why it tears and what to do.

Lay off the hard stuff for 3 or 4 weeks to allow healing with loose underwear.You'll be grand

Have you tried lube or maybe some protection for a while to take away the friction so it doesn't hurt, maybe try both at the same time.

Give it like a month to heal and for a while use a condom and plenty of lube.

Id go so far as to suggest you get a fleshlight ( and some toys for the missus) to practice with to make sure its all good.

Could you have a short frenulum?

Definitely get some proper medical advice from your GP as a starting point, but also in the meantime give it some time to heal too.

It sounds like you really tore something. A GP should be able to refer you to a specialist.

From a practical point of view, all I could suggest really is use good lube and protect it with a well fitting condom when you’re having sex. Make sure you’re not using something that’s way too tight. There are products like MySize which you can buy online and come in multiple sizes, and many condoms are completely different fits. Not every brand suits everyone.

Take it easy though and hopefully it resolves soon. It sounds really nasty.
