Hello doctor,

My husband and I had intercourse on the 25th night and the tip of his penis started bleeding during this. It was the first time he inserted his penis inside. The bleeding stopped the next day but the pain persisted. Today, there is a slight pain but he is afraid if he pulls the foreskin back and the bleeding will start again. He is also afraid that in the future the same thing might happen. Is circumcision necessary now? Is there any ointment or cream to stop the bleeding if he inserts again? Please advise.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

From what you say, it is likely that your husband is suffering from coitus related frenular tear. No ointment can cure or prevent recurrence of the same. A minor procedure like frenuloplasty is still associated with recurrence. Ideally, circumcision and six to eight weeks abstinence are the best treatment options. Kindly visit a urologist for further management.
