A member asked:
Theres a small parting of the skin just at the tip of my penis is this normal and more importantly what is it exactly also why did it tear.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: Without an exam, it is tough to say why or even what the tear is. At times, when the penis gets erect and if traumatized through rough sex or activity like "dry humping" etc, it may certainly cause the skin to get irritated and or even tear. Best to get the area examined and definitively diagnosed, so it can be treated appropriately. Good luck to you.
