Question : Had sex around two weeks ago. Felt a small sharp pain when I went deep into my girlfriend. Then my penis started bleeding from the frenulum area. I can see what I can only describe and a piece of skin, looks like a piece of string, has come disconnected from the fore skin and tip of my penis. Will this heal on its own? I had sex again after over a week of waiting but it hurt and bled again.

It will heal spontaneously ,just need to be patient and avoid injury in next 2-3 weeks after intercourse. Also, this piece of skin may fall out but it wont cause any consequances. only complcaitions which may happen is infection but it rarely happens at this area. YOu can put midly warmed chammomile tea on it to relieve pain. WIsh you good health. Regards
