Is There A Possibility Of Infection For Removal Of Frenulum Using Nail Scissors?

About 3 years ago i removed my frenulum on my penis with no problems. I used a nail scissors and snip of the frenulum 2 times with little bleeding and healed up just fine, why can't doctors do it that way instesd of the z&y cuts they use and stiches, i did not need that at all.

HI

Thanks for posting your query.

Frenulum is a highly vascular structure. It means the blood supply to frenulum is very much . Any intervention over it can cause profuse bleeding.

You have been lucky that you didn't bleed much when you did it with nail scissors. But never do that again . The way doctors do will take care that no profuse bleeding occurs and also it avoids infection.

Hope this information was useful to you.
