Penile adhesions in baby boys occur when the skin of the penis's shaft sticks to the glans (bulbous structure) at the top of the penis. Skin bridges are attachments that are thicker.

If skin around the head of the penis is not retracted as a circumcision heals, skin adhesions may form that prevent the penis from moving freely within its skin. In infants and young children, the foreskin adheres to the penis and will be able to be retracted later as the child develops.
In a circumcised male, penile skin bridge occurs when the circumcision incision heals improperly such that the shaft skin becomes permanently attached to the head of the penis called the glans.

Penile Adhesions and Skin Bridges . Penile adhesions in baby boys occur when the skin of the penis's shaft sticks to the glans (bulbous structure) at the top of the penis. Skin bridges are attachments that are thicker.
The glans is the bulbous structure at the end of the penis. Skin bridges are a thicker, more permanent attachment. They occur when the skin on the shaft of the penis becomes attached to the coronal margin, which is the round border near the tip of the penis.
If your child has adhesions, dead skin cells and oil can get trapped under the skin and create a white discharge called smegma. Though this looks like pus, it is not an infection.
What are the symptoms of penile adhesions and skin bridges? Penile adhesions and skin bridges often have no symptoms and cause no pain. If they persist as a child grows, however, he may notice a tugging feeling during erections. Penile adhesions and skin bridges are usually visible to the naked eye.
This cream can, however, cause skin discoloration (getting lighter or darker) in the surrounding penile skin.
Penile adhesions can be repaired in a urologist’s office or with a topical steroid cream that can be used at home. Repair in the urologist’s office requires a numbing lotion to be applied to your son’s penis prior to the adhesions being taken down.
