A member asked:
Does the frenulum has any function? can i remove it in my next revision circumcision?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be removed: Frenulum helps to return foreskin to cover glans penis. You do not need it. You say "next revision circumcision" suggesting that you already had a circumcision, followed by at least one revision. Wonder why frenulum was not removed at previous surgery!.
