What Could Be A Bit Of Skin Connecting The Foreskin To The Head Of Penis?

Hi,
My query is that there is a bit of skin connecting the foreskin to the head of my penis but it's not a skin bridge because I know what they look like and this isn't that.

Also I am 11 almost 12 and I'm scared of telling my parents although I was going to tell my dad now except he is asleep and now I don't know if il tell them.

Hi. It is good that you know the skin bridge. At your age the skin tag attached to the head of penis can be just incomplete retraction of foreskin, which gets alright with time. Clean with soap and water at bath and try to pull this softly. It may be separated. Do not pull hard or with force. If this does not help tell this to dad. All the parents do observe their child all along their childhood and they would have noticed if something was wrong in a normal circumstances. If you still have a doubt , better show this to Dad or a Doctor .
