Hello- although a frenulum tear should not lead to any long-term complications, it can be very painful at the time. To treat the injury at home with some basic first aid: ensure that the hands are clean, by washing them with soap and water. To stop the blood flow, apply a cloth to the damaged area. Use water to clean the whole area around the injury. Gently dry the wound with a sterile piece of cloth. The bleeding should not last very long after this initial treatment. Treating the wound immediately will also help prevent infection. Further steps, under medical guidance, can include: applying an antibiotic cream covering the tear with a clean bandage or band-aid checking and replacing the dressing every day continuing with antibiotic treatment as recommended since frenulum tears are usually short-term injuries that heal by themselves, a person should not panic if their frenulum tears.
