Hi,

Thanks for your query.

You are right about the diagnosis of your condition, it could probably be frenulum breve based on its appearance.

Treatment of frenulum breve is by surgery but not always circumcision, plastic surgeries like Frenuloplasty is a better procedure with great success where the surgeon splits the required part of the skin and sutures in a required way to correct the defect.

There is another less invasive procedure where threading a suture through the lower membrane, and then tying a tight knot around the frenulum is done. In here after a few days the frenulum will weaken and eventually break apart to allow the prepuce to fully retract.

In minor degrees of frenulum breve steroid creams like Betamethasone Dipropionate 0.5% is used. The success of the medical method is less, needing surgery eventually in many.

Hope, I answered your query.

Please let me know if there are any other concerns.
