What is frenulum piercing?

Frenulum piercing is a type of male genital piercing that involves inserting a small piece of jewelry through the small, thin strip of skin that connects the underside of the penis head to the shaft. The frenulum piercing is also known as the "Jacob's Ladder" piercing when multiple piercings are made along the shaft.

This type of piercing is considered to be one of the more sensitive genital piercings and can enhance sexual pleasure for both partners. However, it can also be more painful than other genital piercings due to the high concentration of nerve endings in the area.

The healing process for a frenulum piercing can take anywhere from 6-8 weeks, and proper aftercare, such as cleaning the area regularly, is important to prevent infection. It is also important to abstain from sexual activity during the healing process to prevent irritation or damage to the piercing.

As with any piercing, there are also potential risks involved, such as allergic reactions, scarring, and difficulty urinating. It is recommended to only get a frenulum piercing from a professional and experienced piercer using sterile equipment.
