Circumcision's skin bride.

Hello, I'm a 24 years old male. I have a skin bridge left by circumcision, but it's not attached to the glans. Rather, it is attached to the foreskin remnant. It's a small bridge on the circumcision scar. My concern is that it can accumulate bacteria that can't be washed with normal cleaning of the penis, which in return may affect a partner.

How can I deal with this situation, and is there a surgery to fix this?

This can be dealt with in the office under local in most cases! I have done some revisions in the operating room.

Hello, You are correct, this bridge may be a source of infection or inflammation. A simple revision is in order. Takes only a few minutes local or sedation anesthesia usually suffices. See a urologist for a formal consultation
