the connecting tissue under the glans, tying the glans to the foreskin, much as the frenulum of the tongue. The frenulum is the most sexually sensitive area of the penis, comparable with the clitoris in the female, and is removed during male circumcision.
The triangular area of sensitive skin on the underside of the penis, attaching the glans to the foreskin.
the fold in the mucous membrane that attaches the tongue to the floor of the mouth.
A small fold of tissue that connects a more fixed part, such as the floor of the mouth, to a movable part, like the tongue.
The small sheet of skin on the underside of the penis which joins the glans to the foreskin.
A highly sensitive triangular area of skin on the underside of the penis, where the glans meets the foreskin.
A fold of skin or mucous membrane that limits the movement of a body part. For example, the frenulum linguae is the midline fold under the tongue that attaches it to the floor of the mouth.
A bridle; see lingual frenulum.
A fibrous cord of connecting tissue on the underside of the penis which joins the back of the glans to the inner foreskin, much like the frenum of the tongue. It is generally recommended that it be removed during circumcision. (The frenulum)
A highly sensitive area of skin on the underside of the penis, where the glans meets the body of the penis.
a small fold of the mucous coat which limits the movement of the structure to which it is attached
The triangular area of skin on the underside of the penis, which attaches to the glans. Often considered the most sensitive area of the penis.
An indentation or tiny fold of skin located in the ridge under the glans of the penis.
A thin web of skin that joins the inside of the foreskin to the underside of the glans, similar to the web of skin that joins the tongue to the bottom of the mouth. The frenulum is often absent in cases of hypospadias.
The fleshy band of tissue on the underside of the penis that gathers up the foreskin to a point behind the glans and very close to the urinary meatus (pee-hole), helping to hold the foreskin forward over the glans. Similar structures are found under the tongue and in the mid-line of upper and lower lips inside the mouth. The frenulum is one of the most erogenous parts of the penis.
The extra-sensitive, loose piece of skin under the head of the penis.
