Posted: 04/10/08 - 20:10 Post subject: Removing Keratinization of My Circumcised Penis With Salicyl |
|
|
I use a wash face with 2% Salicylic Acid and it certain helps with acne.
However, I was reading online that this ingredient also helps various skin disorders elsewhere on the body for various conditions such as eczema, keratinization, psoriasis, etc...
So just out of curiosity, I decided to rub some of it onto the head of my penis in addition to my face in the shower once a day for the past two weeks.
My head has now become slightly more sensitive and I know it's not just placebo effect because the head has even turned a lighter natural pinkish color like that of an uncircumcised head, but dry.
I have not noticed any negative side effects such as redness, swelling, pain, stinging that some people may have when using Salicylic Acid on their bodies.
Now my question pertains to any long term effects of this on my penile area. I know that chemicals can be absorbed through skin in trace amounts, would this be enough to cause fertility issues?
I know they have Salicylic Acid acne creams that you're suppose to leave on your skin, but I'm just using the wash kind where you rub it on, then rinse it off. Is the short time of contact even enough to absorb? Are my concerns legitimate?
Thanks for your help!

I bet you've been circumcised, "Guest"? I had to have it done 5 years ago and was told that "I might notice some loss of sensitivity"!!! That doctor was the master of the understatement!! I can hardly feel anything now compared with before. Any form of sex (HJ, BJ or the real thing) takes ages and is so frustrating for both me and my girl-friend.
I'm going to try that acid stuff and hope it helps. I'll come back and let you know. |

Fertility issues with using an acne treatment on the head of the penis?
I doubt it.
Fertility is the question about the viability of the sperm, which are produced in the testes and stored in the vas diference, epididimus, and travel the spermatacord.
I can't see any point at which these two locations cross until they leave the body, and then they are in the women's body. I also don't think that you'd be using this acne treatment during sex, would you?
As far as trying to get sensation back after a circumcision, I doubt that salic acid is going to restore nerve endings. But it may make the nerves and skin a bit more raw.
I think this is an interesting concept to research and I hope to hear further what you learn.
But I'd hesitate before telling anyone else to do it.
Good luck, keep us informed. |
