A member asked:

I cut the v shaped frenulum nerve of my penis years ago. the left side to be specific.. i know i have major nerve damage . can this be corrected?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Frenulum: The frenulum of the penis is not a nerve and has no more sensory nerve endings than any other penile tissue. The frenulum is most often cut during circumcision. I am unclear on your actual concern?
