Meatotomy
From BME Encyclopedia
Meatotomy is kind of like the beginner version of subincision (although that is an unfair simplification). When the subincision is only underneath the glans it is known as a meatotomy (or, if naturally occurring, a hypospadia). A meatotomy sometimes occurs when a PA is torn out accidentally, but is usually done voluntarily as a clamp and cut procedure in order to open the urethra, often for sounding play.
It should be noted that meatotomy procedures tend to have excessive bleeding and infection is also a risk (although a minor one). Meatotomies usually heal in not much more than a week and tend to be far less difficult to heal than a piercing.
A meatotomy will have little effect for most people penetrative sex from either the meatotomized person's point of view or their partners, although it will improve manual stimulation for those that enjoy urethral stimulation. Anatomically, the urethra tightens immediately behind the glans, so this procedure can greatly improve access to the urethra for larger sounds.
Meatotomies usually damage the ability to urinate normally because they disrupt the urine spray (that is, you'll pee on your pants, your foot, or the guy next to you), although this is definitely not universally true.
