Suggest Treatment For The Skin Attached To The Head Of The Penis

Hi i was told at my last physical that i still have a little bit of skin attached to the head of my penis that was suppose to break away when i was little or something. I am 16 now and he said that if it ever bothers me to go to a doctor and get it cut but i was wonderin if it really mattered if i went to a doctor or if i could just cut it myself. Im wonderin how to do it if its just simple and cut or if i have to cut it in a certain spot?

Hello,

If foreskin is attached than you might suffer problem in performing sexual intercourse in future.

So it can be removed surgically by aseptic precaustion. It is called circumcision operation.

Don't try to remove it by your own.

Hope I have answered your question.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
