Wikipedia
A lorum is a male genital piercing, placed horizontally on the underside of the penis at its base, where the penis meets the scrotum. The word "lorum" is a portmanteau of the words "low" and " frenum", so named because it is essentially a very low-placed frenum piercing. Much like the frenum piercing the lorum can have multiple rungs added and be a ladder as well.
No known information exists on infection risk of this piercing.
Jewelry typically used in this piercing includes the straight barbell and the captive bead ring. However, there have been cases where other jewelry such as studs and horseshoe barbells have been used. Noting: that the studs usually imply a rather shallow placement or stretching of the area has made it become shallow.

Usage examples of "lorum".
The native-distilled madira was more powerful than Barents brandy, and Lorum suspected that the herbs they used to flavor it were mild hallucinogens.
The Bashir sounded, so far as Lorum could judge from the swift-flowing cadences of the liquid Kalapriyan tongue, shifty.
His smile of complicity made Lorum feel as if he were wading through vats of oil.
But nobody ever survived the magic weapons that Lorum van Vechten had given the Bashir.
Udara itself had had a Barents Society Resident for some years, one Lorum van Vechten, of whom Gabrel knew little except that the man had been completely unhelpful as to local information about the Independent Tribal Territories of the High Jagirs.
