I asked for pictures which retracted when erect as far as was comfortable and then a little more ... if these pictures are retracted as far as possible - then first I can tell you that the foreskin retracts normally a good way behind the glans and not just latched behind it, usually the inner foreskin will lay out stretched flat - inside out - along the shaft of the glans. Yours stops and ruffles up behind the glans ... from all I can see this is the frenulum breve which is hindering further retraction. Your frenulum breve is very short, so short that it may even not exist, (so in a sense you are correct in saying you have no frenulum breve!) it appears that the foreskin is actually touching the glans and connected directly to it - this is also a frenulum breve problem leading to the same and similar symptoms.. These pictures confirm my feeling from a few weeks back when you wrote about it being tight "When erected i can easily enough(with almost no pain,just with a sense of tight) retract my foreskin back" You must please go to an Urologist or surgeon and ask him to check your frenulum area. I suspect he will offer you a frenuloplasty or frenoplasty and then you can please read male-initiation.net/frenulum_treatment.html cheers - tell us what happens Robin Answers: Re: photos George 11/20/2005 16:06 (3) Re: photos Robin 11/23/2005 17:06 (2) questions George 11/30/2005 17:18 (1) Re: questions robin 12/07/2005 16:29 (0)
