Is it normal to have cracks in the head of my penis?

The head of my penis has cracks that run up and down on my head. They are not deep and are completely invisible when I am soft. They kinda look like a fissured tongue on the tip of my dick but WAY less noticeable and deep. When I get hard the cracks of course spread out and are revealed. I'm uncircumcised and have never had sex so its not an STD or something. Although what STD makes your dick crack? Anyways.

    Sorry, but I'm having problems visualising what you're seeing from your description.

    It's normal for the glans to have a rough texture which might include shallow fissures when soft, but for the skin to stretch out and become smooth when the penis is erect. What you say makes it sound like you're seeing the opposite of this.

    You don't say how old you are or if this is something you've always had. If it is a change that's developed over recent months and you're still going through puberty, then it could be just one of those things.

    Since you're uncut, I assume the skin of the glans isn't dry and its not constantly chaffing on something, and I'd hope that your cleaning regime isn't so aggressive that it's causing your skin to dry out.

    You say that you think it looks odd, but you don't mention any pain or bleeding, which suggests to me that it isn't a serious problem. Obviously, if it's something that's really bothering you, then you should see a physician for an opinion. Feeling embarrassed about this is normal, but you can be sure that the doctor will have seen much odder things and been consulted by patients who are worried about much more trivial things.

    When it comes down to it, penises aren't supposed to look pretty, and you shouldn't take what you see in porn as representing the full range of what completely normal dicks look like. Some people - male and female - have narrow standards of what an attractive penis looks like, but most of your future sexual partners will be more concerned about what you do with it and if you're comfortable and confident about your body.

    • Its kind of hard to explain what it looks like. But I don't think it matter any more because you just put to bed all my fears. Seriously thank you.

    VD is a myth spread by old prude teachers in high school because they're mad students are having better sex than them. Thats why they get a comission from the condom companies telling kids to have sex with rubbers into adulthood instead of learning the pull out method. Don't worry about it.

    Its hard to give advice without seeing it. But then seeing it will be gay. I guess I could always say no homo.

    It’s dry skin, just dip your penis in the mayonaisse.

    Definitely sounds like a bad case of gonococolitis.
    It's incurable and any/all future sexual activities will be limited to you masturbating inside a plastic bubble while your partners just watch from the outside cheering you on.

        But you get to jump around inside the bubble like in one of those inflatable bounce houses.
