Urologist consult: Feeling thight but is it painful? If it is interfering with your wellbeing, you may seek the expertise of a urologogist and consider surgical release of the tightness. Otherwise, embrace this as it makes you unique! ;-)

A 20-year-old male asked:
Can I use tazorac (tazarotene) on my penis? I'm wanting to impove my skin and hopefully loosen up some of the skin that is tight from my circumcision . That ok ?

NOT GOOD IDEA: Tazorac (tazarotene) will make the skin angry and you wont like it and you would be much better off using Hydrocortisone cream (cortaid otc).

A 55-year-old male asked:
I am a circumcised male. I have a thin line of raised skin that starts just below my urethra opening and runs down the penis head to where the frenulum starts. I can't remember how long it's been there. No pain or other issues. Is this normal?

If it has not caused any issues, better to leave it alone. It may just be a variation on normal and be your normal.
Wish you good health!

Without examining it, a diagnosis cannot be definitively made; it is possible that is a genital wart.

A 32-year-old male asked:
I was circumcised last year for a tight foreskin and yeast infections. Not all the skin was removed. It covers my corona when flaccid and there is a wad of scar tissue on the underside of my penis. Do I need a revision?
Dr. Hunter Handsfieldanswered

Probably no need: From your description, I don't see any obvious need for revision. But check back with the doctor who did the procedures.
