Hair underneath my foreskin

2017-08-08 07:40:44
Today in the morning i noticed a hair underneath my foreskin. I tried to pull it out thinking it was stucked but i can feel as if it has its root inside it. Its not coming out. Suggest me a way to this problem. Is it a serious case to concern or just normal

The skin covering the shaft of the penis has hair and these may be seen almost upto the upper shaft i.e base of start of foreskin. Its normal. The covering of the glans and the inner skin of the foreskin DOES NOT have hair follicles. If the hair is seen in this spot, do consult a doctor. Best would be a dermatologist
