Q: how to treat a small cut/tear on the frenulum on the penis? what cream or ointment should i use? ive been using vaseline. should i continue or stop?

: A small tear or cut there should heal by itself in a week or so if kept clean. Stop Vaseline. You can use an OTC antibiotic ointment if you want. Let area heal completely before you have sex ( app,10-14 days)
