What Causes Bleeding From Penis In The Middle Of Oral Sex?

Posted on Tue, 17 Jun 2014

Question: Hi, I'm 26 and this morning was getting oral sex from my girlfriend when my penis started to bleed. It stopped after a few minutes and is just a little sore now but just worried. I found some things about a torn frenulum and think this may have happened. Also, this happened 3 weeks ago while dancing with her and I noticed later that night there was blood on my penis as well. I thought 3 weeks would be enough time but looks like it wasn't. What should I do?

Abstinence from sex need for healing.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Thanks for posting your query.

Bleeding in the midst of a oral sex and a soreness near the frenal area of your penis definitely indicates that there is some injury of possibly over the frenulum of your penis sometime back during sex. It may even before ten days.
As you said, 10 days is more than enough for the same to heal. But some sort of persistent sexual activity in the presence of the ulcer would prevent healing. So an absolute abstinence from sex is a must. If necessary an antibiotic cream and oral antibiotics can be added.
It is better to have a blood workup for STDs and HIV.
Get well soon.
