Talk:Frenectomy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following commentary was posted by 4.168.54.163 to the main article. I (Hadal) simply moved it here:
- Friday afternoon my urologist did a frenulectomy (his spelling) for my severe frenulum breve, in which I thought he was merely to clip my fren. He cut and sewed for about 30 mins and told me not to disturb it for 24 hours, when I was to shower and wash it with soap and water.
- When I checked it before I showered on Saturday, I was pleased that there was very little soreness. It's apparent that he excised my frenulum from the wound in my cock head down the side of my cock shaft, which he had sewn with self-dissolving stitches.
- The nurse had begun the procedure by telling my to take off my clothes below my waist and lie on the table which had a thick pad under me. She then poured orange Beta-dine antiseptic all over my cock and balls, retracting my foreskin and scrubbing my cock head and inner foreskin, and then my balls. She then put a blue sheet with a hole through which she pulled only my cock. The doctor then appeared and with his needle gave me a shots into my fren in my cock head and shaft deadening my entire fren area.
- He was skeptical when I told him I wanted to watch the procedure but had me propped up so I could. He seemed to have all kinds of special tools he was attaching to my fren, but when he snipped my fren at my cock head, the blood splattered and that was enough for me. I felt like I would puke if I watched further, so I closed my eyes and immediately the nausea passed. While I could feel and hear his tugging, snipping, and sewing, there was no pain at all.
- To make sure he wasn't circumcising me, I peeked frequently and saw that he was only excising my fren for its entire length. When he had finished, he held up my fren, which was a yellow thickish cord, which like a short rubber band had shrunk to 1/8 inch long! No wonder my cock head had been bent down when I was erect.
- The whole procedure had taken less than an hour, about half with the nurse preparing me. The doctor told me he wanted to see me in two weeks, so I walked out of his office and drove home, feeling none the worse for wear. Because the wound is not in the urinary flow, there is no pain when I pee.
- I was amazed by the lack of good information and abundance of misinformation about this procedure on the web. Some man wrote it was the worst pain he'd ever felt, which I guess is possible without painkillers.
- When the nurse was preparing me, I heard groans from the next room. I asked if that man were having the same procedure, the nurse laughed and said it was a vasectomy, but that doctor never allowed enough time for the pain killers to deaden the tissue before he began the procedure. I was pleased that my doctor was careful my fren was deadened before he started.
- When I was first inspecting the wound yesterday, I was tempted to go for an erection but decided not to stress the stitches.
- I hope this information proves helpful to 5% of the men who are bothered with frenulum breve, for which the doctors only offered me full circumcision for many years up until only very recently.
[edit] Posthectomy
Remove posthectomy references, since the ordinary name is circumcision and the posthectomy link redirected to the circumcision article anyway. Got rid of the anesthesia reference, since I don't think that encyclopedias generally include reminders to use anesthesia during surgery.Benami 02:29, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
