Hello,
Thank you for your consult at DoctorSpring.com.
I have seen quite a large number of patients having your presentation. Your frenulum has become fibrotic secondary to infection and hence tears off or becomes sore with each intercourse.
You should refrain from intercourse for 3 weeks and locally apply any antibiotic cream. However, if the problem still persists after 3 weeks then you have to undergo a surgical procedure by the name of frenuloplasty.
Hope this helps, please let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care.
Sincerely

Hello again,
Thank you for getting back to me, it helps a lot. I had another question though, is there anything in particular I should look for in the cream?
Also if it hasn't healed who should I see about further treatment?
Thank you
Dear Sir,
Any antibiotic cream such as neosporin should do well. If it does not heal then you need to see urologist.

Patient replied :
Hello,
Just one more question I am having a hard time finding neosporin in Australia due to being discontinued here. Is there anything else that you know I can look for?
Thanks again
Dear sir,
You can try looking for mupirocin ointment.
