> Yes, this is a congenital (dating from birth) condition where the hole that should be at the tip of the glans winds up somewhere else. If on the bottom of the penis it's called "hypospadias," as Allen says, and if located topside it's called epispadias. It can be treated surgically. I saw an article on this subject in a medical textbook that said kids with the condition should never be circumcised because part of the foreskin could be used in repairing the existing hole while making a new one at the front of the glans. I claim no expertise whatever in this area, but if it bothers you, you can go to a specialist (urologist? plastic surgeon? maybe a genberal practitioner will know where to refer you) to get some input on where to go from here. One thought: it ain't broke, it's just how you were born! Best wishes, RJK.
> >>my penis is all messed up. the hole that is supposed to be at the tip is on the backside of the head. its like i have no backside to my penis, cause that is where my hole is. why?

> >You have hypospadias. I have the same condition. Yahoo has 2 club for guys with this condition. It can be corrected with surgery but you better join these clubs to get the lowdown on surgery. Be careful of doctors. I have had several doctors go bizerk wanting to fix my pee hole and cut off my foreskin. I don't understand this. It interests other guys to see me pee out of the bottom of my penis head. Send me your email address and I will send you a picture of my penis hole.
