Pain with Erections During Sex. Cuts on the penis.

YA is a 33-year-old man who came in with a request for penile frenuloplasty.  He was circumcised as a child. He complains of recurrent pain with erections in the area of the penile frenulum.  He also reports a few tears of the skin in that area in the past.  The patient arrived at the office after a 3-hour flight. He lives in another state and reports that he was advised frenuloplasty but found the prices at the local hospital unaffordable.

Real StoriesPhysical examination revealed a circumcised penis with residual frenulum of the penis.  The pain is in the area of the penile frenulum.  

The patient was advised penile frenuloplasty with an 80-90% likelihood that it would resolve his symptoms.  He elected to undergo same-day penile frenuloplasty under local anesthesia.

The patient was given prophylactic antibiotics to minimize the risk of infection and pain medications.  He underwent penile frenuloplasty in our office under local anesthesia.  The procedure was done under local anesthesia and took less than 30 minutes.  The patient was able to go back to his hotel after completion of the procedure.  Overall, he spent just over 3 hours in the office, which included consultation and same-day procedure.

On follow-up video-consultation 2 weeks after the procedure, the patient reported that he had no pain and did not require pain medications after the procedure. He did sight-seeing in New York City the day after the procedure before catching a 3-hour flight back to his home town. 

1 month after the procedure patient was asked to upload images of the incision to the secure patient portal. The scar was noted to have healed.   The patient reports no pain, no other complaints. He was advised that he can resume sexual activity.

On follow up, 3 months after the procedure, the patient reported via the online patient portal that the original problem, pain with erections, has not occurred since penile frenuloplasty. He is happy about his decision to undergo penile frenuloplasty. The patient was advised that no further follow up is necessary as everything has healed well.
