 Posted: 01/12/08 - 00:49 Post subject: Hard dry lump on foreskin and dry patch of skin |
  |
|
I have had this for a while now hoping that it would go away. At the very end of my foreskin (where the skin bends understand?) There is a very small lump that has emerged which is rather hard and the skin around it is also dry. When I squeeze the lump (thought it may be similar to a spot) it can hurt a little but otherwise I have no discomfort, however I feel embarrassed by it as u can see there is something not right as the colour of the dry skin is different from the rest, being more paler/whiter.
Does anyone know wot it is or have any advice? Ive thought about going to doctors but am unsure whether or not its necessary, and dont want to embarrass myself!
Thanks |

This is called Seborrheic dermatitis. I have this thing as well but I control most of it. It could be caused by perfume or cologne, certain types of soap or anything w/ fragrance. Also certain types of metal, like shaving blades, hair cutting machine's, the metal part of a belt, metal watches etc. You can control it by putting on Vasoline every time atleast every hour and stuff w/ no fragrance. Drink alot of water to flush your system out because this is some type of bacteria inside the body. |
