	Effects of Glans Penis Augmentat
		Major contributing factors of sensory in glans penis are distribution of dorsal nerve, number of receptor, threshold of receptor and accessibility of stimuli to the receptor.
		The human glans penis is covered by stratified squamous epithelium and a dense layer of connective tissue equivalent to the dermia of typical skin The papillary dermis blends into and is continuous with the dense connective tissue forming the tunica albuginea of the corpus spongiosum of the glans penis.
		Glans penis augmentation by injectable HA gel is not harmful and as effective as dorsal neurectomy in decreasing sensory of glans penis.

		penis: the male urinary and copulatory organ, comprising a root, shaft, and at the extremity, glans penis and foreskin [from Latin, penis, or tail].
		The penis in the male is the homologue of the clitoris in the female.
		The external appearance of the penis is that of a fleshy tube emerging from the crotch near the bottom of the pubis and forward of the testicles.

	Glans penis - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The glans penis is the expanded cap of the corpus spongiosum.
		At the summit of the glans is the slit-like vertical external urethral orifice.
		The circumference of the base of the glans forms a rounded projecting border, the corona glandis, overhanging a deep retroglandular sulcus (the coronal sulcus), behind which is the neck of the penis.

	Penis
		The penis (plural penises or penes) or phallus is the male copulatory organ, and, in mammals, the male organ of urinary excretion.
		From polling, the average human male penis is 5 1/2 inches (14 cm) in length when fully engorged with blood during arousal, though this varies quite a bit.
		Apart from a penectomy, perhaps the most radical of these is the subincision, in which the glans penis is bifurcated to look similar to that of the kangaroo.

	Glans Information
		The glans (literally, Latin for acorn--because the glans of an uncircumcised penis often looks like an acorn popping out of its cap) is a structure internally composed of corpus spongiosum in males or of corpus cavernosa and vestibular tissue in females that is located at the tip of homologous genital structures involved in sexual arousal.
		The exterior structure of the glans consists of mucous membrane, which is usually covered by foreskin or clitoral hood in naturally developed genitalia.
		In males the glans is known as the glans penis, while in females the glans is known as the glans clitoris.

	Anatomy & Terms
		The process of adhering or uniting of two skin surfaces, especially the union of the opposing surface of the interior foreskin to the glans of the penis (in the uncircumcised) or the opposing surface of the circumcision wound to the bared glans in the newly circumcised (called Skin Bridges).

		The penis is capable of erection for use in sexual intercourse.
		The human penis differs from some other mammalian penises by lacking an erectile bone, instead relying entirely on engorgement with blood to reach its erect state, lacking the ability to be withdrawn into the groin, and being larger than average in proportion to body mass.
		Hypospadias is a developmental disorder of the penis, where the meatus is positioned wrongly at birth.

		On the underside of the glans, the foreskin's point of attachment to the body of the penis is the muscular, bandlike ligament called the frenulum.
		Direct stimulation of the glans of the intact penis is most pleasant when the stimulus mimics the moist, massaging action of the foreskin.
		This is seen most clearly in the evolutionary increase in corpuscular innervation of the human foreskin and the simultaneous decrease in corpuscular receptors in the human glans relative to the innervation of the foreskin and glans of lower primates.

		It is also commonly referred to as the head of the penis or bell end (coarse slang), although this is not the proper medical terminology.
		Studies have suggested that the glans is equally sensitive in circumcised and uncircumcised males, however, many males who have restored their foreskin or been circumcised as adults disagree with these findings.
		Yang & Bradley argue that "The distinct pattern of innervation of the glans emphasizes the role of the glans as a sensory structure".

		The frenulum, or frenum, is a connecting membrane on the underside of the penis, similar to that beneath the tongue.
		The most important components of the physical erogenous stimulation of the penis during foreplay and intercourse are the sensations from the foreskin, frenulum/frenar band, and glans.

	Penis
		The penis, the male copulatory organ, is a cylindrical pendant organ located anterior to the scrotum and functions to transfer sperm to the vagina.
		The root of the penis attaches it to the pubic arch and the body is the visible, pendant portion.
		This condition is caused by scarring on one of the two corpora cavernosa within the penis, stunting its effectiveness during erection and causing the penis to bend almost 90 degrees in that direction.

		The distinct pattern of innervation of the glans emphasizes the role of the glans as a sensory structure.
		Vibratory stimuli applied to the glans penis induced ejaculation in men with spinal cord injury [13,14], supporting the concept that the DNP is the principal source of afferent excitatory drive to the BCM and ejaculation.
		In conclusion, the dorsal nerve of the penis innervates the phallus through two separate populations of axons; one with branches radiating ventrolaterally across the penile shaft, with branches to the corpus spongiosum and urethra, and one to the glans penis.

		As the boy grows; this skin, although originally attached all the way 'round to the glans of his penis, comes free, so that by the time he is five or six years old, he is able to roll the skin back to expose the whole of his glans.
		The glans and neck area of his penis is very sensitive, as is the interior surface of his prepuce, (foreskin), with millions of touch sensitive nerves distributed throughout the whole foreskin.

	Problems with the glans
		While that extreme level of sensitivity may be unusual, it is not uncommon for men to report that they have difficulties with rubbing of clothing on their glans penis, especially if they have to be circumcised later in life for some reason.
		Another group of men whose glans become over-sensitive are those who have had adhesion between the foreskin and glans prematurely detached; again, often by circumcision, or by parents forcing back the foreskin in infancy, or some other cause (hypospadias is a likely candidate here).
		To reinforce the view that a boy's penis is his own, and his parents have no moral right to decide whether or not to have him circumcised, here are some more pictures of the possible consequences of a bad circumcision here.

	eMedicine - Phimosis and Paraphimosis : Article by Santos Cantu, Jr, MD
		The foreskin continues to be tight until progressive keratinization of the epithelial layers between the glans and the inner prepuce dislodges the foreskin from the glans.
		Manual reduction of the prepuce over the glans can be achieved by placing both index fingers on the dorsal border of the penis behind the retracted prepuce while placing both thumbs on the end of the glans.
		Placing direct pressure on the glans penis with the fingers or with the help of a 2 x 2-inch Kerlix bandage around the glans has also been described as an effective method for the reduction of a paraphimosis.
