The lorum piercing is a close relative of the hafada piercing and the frenum piercing. The distinction between these piercings is that the hafada can be located anywhere on the scrotum, the frenum is located on the underside of the penis shaft and the lorum is located strictly at the junction of the scrotum and the shaft. On some brave men, the lorum connects a frenum ladder and scrotal ladder.

The lorum is usually pierced horizontally, or perpendicular to the shaft of the penis. Now that you know where this piercing is located and how it is pierced, check out some pictures to see what this piercing looks like.

A lorum, like most other male genital piercings, can be pierced at 14, 12, or 10 gauge. Your piercer will work with you in determining the gauge to suit your individual needs. The lorum accommodates several types of body jewelry including circulars, curved barbells, and straight barbells.

The healing time and aftercare of the lorum are pretty standard when compared to a few other male genital piercings. Expect it to heal in 3 to 4 months if you closely follow the aftercare instructions given by your piercer. You will want to clean your lorum twice a day. Some people also soak their piercing in sea salt water to speed up the healing process. Keep your piercing cool and dry at all other times and wear loose clothing to help with ventilation.
