My penis is circumsized but I still have a small piece of skin that acts almost like a bridge from the top of my shaft to the head. Its probably 1/4 of an inch wide and is only connected in the begginning and at the end of it. the middle is not connected ot my penis which makes it look like a "bridge". ANyone have any idea what this is. It almost looks like it prevents me from getting bigger when Im hard and was wondering if there was a way to get rid of it

Actually, Jorje, this sounds like an actual circumcision complication called a skin bridge...
The frenulum is located on the underside of the penis, and there is no part of it that isn't attached to the penis... it is like that thing under your tongue.
a skin bridge is one of a number of fairly common complications caused by circumcision. (including bending/curving/bowing penises from scar tissue, as well as painful erections caused by too much skin being removed, which can also pull hair up onto the shaft).
the skin doesn't actually "regrow", either.. it just grows together with the wounded head of the penis during the healing process. it is likely that the mother did not carefully inspect the area each day as it was healing to make sure it wasn't attaching wrong, etc.
THERE IS NO GOOD REASON TO CIRCUMCISE A BABY!
THE FORESKIN IS HEALTHY, SENSITIVE, FUNCTIONAL, EROGENOUS GENITAL TISSUE!
It contains the same type of nerve endings as those found in the fingertips and lips. It protects the head of the penis and the urethra (1 in 10 circumcised men develop a scarring of the urethra called meatal stenosis). The mobility of the foreskin also reduces abrasive friction during sexual activity, increasing the comfort of both partners.
LEAVE IT ALONE!!! It doesn't belong to parents. All healthy, valuable body parts belong ONLY to the person born with them.

It's not "skin that tried to grow back", it's called the frenulum. It's natural in both cut and uncut penises. If you're gonna post videos giving them advice, please make sure the advice isn't garbage. It's the frenulum. It's natural. You're fine. It's not an excuse for your penis being small.

Just from what I could research, it sounds like the skin tried to grow back and didn't. I'd go see a doctor if I were you, and I'd make sure to clean that area thoroughly.
