Frenum

A frenum is a fairly un-painful surface piercing generally located on the lower portion of the penis where the head and shaft meet, often going through the circumcision scar.
Healing time is generally around 6 weeks, but recipients are often able to carefully have oral/vaginal sex with condom after the first couple days.
Also, one rung of a frenum ladder.

um, yes. not only is a frenum a fun lil part of a penis, prone to piercings, apparently (ouch!), it's also a little hunk of skin connecting the inside of your upper lip to your gums. also prone to piercing.
