Buried penis (also called concealed or hidden penis) is a condition in which the penis is partially or fully covered by the skin of the scrotum, abdomen, or thighs. Although a buried penis may be (and often is) normal in size, it is hidden under the skin, so it does not fully protrude (stick out) from the body.
