Guest Reader:
Hi, I have been wanting a PA for sometime. However I have a tight foreskin, which I can pull over the head, but leaves a mushroom shaped head, can this be pierced? Thanks
Response from Elayne Angel, APP President, Author The Piercing Bible
I frequently receive inquiries from men who are not circumcised and are concerned about whether or not a Prince Albert piercing is advisable or even possible. Like many aspects of body piercing, it depends on individual anatomy.
As it says in The Piercing Bible:
If you are uncircumcised, you may still be built for a PA piercing.
You must be able to comfortably retract your foreskin far enough for the piercing to be placed in an appropriate location. The piercer must check your tissue with your foreskin in both positions to be certain the jewelry will fit properly.
If your foreskin fits snugly over your head, a curved bar may be needed for healing. You must not wear a ring so large that it prevents your foreskin from resting in its natural position. The ball at the tip of your penis must not be so small that a curved or circular barbell easily slips into your urethra. This will cause the remainder of the ring or bar to hang down from your piercing, which can irritate your tissue and might feel unpleasant inside. -Elayne Angel, Author The Piercing Bible--
