Webbed Penis (Penoscrotal Webbing)
A webbed penis, also called penoscrotal webbing, occurs when the skin that connects the penis and scrotum extends too high on the penis, creating a web-like appearance. This condition is uncommon and is usually present from birth (congenital). In some cases, it can also develop if too much skin is removed during circumcision. Scrotoplasty (surgical correction) is the standard treatment to restore a normal appearance and function.
What is a webbed penis?
A webbed penis happens when the skin from the scrotum is attached too high on the penis. This creates a web-like look when the penis is pulled away from the scrotum. It’s also called penoscrotal webbing (PSW) or congenital penile scrotal fusion.
Is a webbed penis a problem?
In children, a webbed penis usually doesn’t cause any issues. But as a person grows, it can lead to painful erections and make sexual intercourse difficult. Many people choose treatment to reduce erection pain and also for cosmetic reasons.
Is a webbed penis rare?
Yes. Webbed penis (penoscrotal webbing) is uncommon. Research is limited, but one study of 5,881 newborns found that about 4% had this condition.
How do I know if I have a webbed penis?
To check:
Gently pull your penis upward (toward the ceiling).
At the same time, pull the scrotum downward.
If you notice a stretch of skin creating a web-like shape between the penis and scrotum, it may be a webbed penis.
The best way to confirm is to visit your primary care doctor or a urologist. They can diagnose it and suggest treatment if needed.
What causes a webbed penis?
There are two main types:
Congenital webbed penis (present at birth): Doctors don’t know exactly why it happens.
Acquired webbed penis (develops later): Usually happens after circumcision if too much skin is removed.
What’s the difference between a buried penis and a webbed penis?
Both are penis-related conditions. A buried penis is when extra skin or fat hides the penis. Sometimes, webbing can lead to a buried penis, but not all buried penises are caused by webbing.

How do you get rid of webbed penis?
The most effective treatment for webbed penis is scrotoplasty surgery. During this procedure, a urologist:
Carefully cuts the webbed skin connecting the scrotum to the penis.
Repositions and sutures the skin in the correct anatomical location.
Restores the normal angle between the penis and scrotum.
This surgery not only corrects cosmetic appearance but also relieves discomfort or pain during erections.
If penoscrotal webbing does not cause functional or cosmetic concerns, treatment is not medically necessary.
