Brief Answer:
Not a serious concern, will heal in two weeks
Detailed Answer:
Hi Pully,
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
The tear in your penis may get better without treatment. Avoid sexual activity until the tear has healed. Once it has healed, you can try using a lubricant during sex to prevent the problem from happening again.
It is not a serious issue and might take 2 weeks to heal. Right now you are required to keep your genital clean and dry. Please wash with warm water twice a day to avoid any infection. You may apply neosporin ointment over the torn frenulum. Please take oral pain killers like TOLPA - D twice a day for 5 days.
Since the bleeding seems to have stopped, you do not need surgical suturing. It may happen that a scar might form in the area, if this happens then there is shortening of frenulum and might be released by minor surgery . This cannot be known now and will be obvious only after one month.
Please wear loose inner clothes and maintain genital hygiene. Avoid masturbation or sex for two weeks.
Hope your query is answered.
Do write back if you have any doubts.
Regards,
Dr.Vivek
