>Hello guys, it's good to be back,
>I had a frenuloplasty 2 months ago, and i've never felt better. But...now that my glands have been exposed more, i notice my perley papules (little white goose bumps right along the bottom of the glands) much more. THey are soooo ugly, and i fuken hate em. Also, women freak out then they see em.
>What causes perley papules? i've heard that tehy supposedly show up in some uncirced men during puberty and dissapear later on, but there is no scientific data to confirm this. Is there a hygenic reason for them? Before, unable to retract, cleaning never happened, could this have caused it? BTW, i now clean on a regular basis.
>can i prevent, cure, or minimise the appearance of perley papules?? I have over 40-60 individual bumps right along the bottom of my helmet, so they are extreamly noticeable.
>Has anyone had simular experiences with perley papules??
>Any info would be appreciated

It is surprising that you found out the correct word for the little bumps and overlooked that they are a normal and proper part of male anatomy. It would be more accurate to describe their lack as another loss that circumcised men have. I'm really not sure of any defined function - for me it has been enough to know that this is the way I am designed to be. I don't remember the details of your surgery status, but if your glans is exposed all or most of the time now, the papules should disappear before long. I'm not sure if keratinization covers them or they are chafed away, but they'll not be seen.
