Skin Bridge

[richard1]

Hi

I am an uncircumcised male. I have a skin bridge on the right hand side. It's attached to the glans about 2/3 of the way up and is at least 1 cm wide. I have seen a urologist before. He said he'd cut it off for me under local. However, I soon moved country thereafter and haven't had a chance to have it sorted yet. See photo attached.

It doesn't cause any noticeable pain, although it is tight in the sense that it's not easy to pass something underneath it. Although it does cause my great insecurity sexually. I want to know if I get a urologist to cut it off, will there be any scarring or discoloration? Or a skin tag? If any of those three occur I don't know whether it's worth it? What are your recommendations?

Thanks
Rick

The risk of scarring is small. It shouldn't get discoloured and there shouldn't be a skin tag of done well.
I would get it sorted. Will put it behind you and give you more confidence.
