Hi, i am 26 and a while back I started to have problems with my foreskin , My partner has had several check ups and she is clean, but for some reason my foreskin started to shrink, i can bearly get it over my head when erected, it is also very dry around the tip when not erected and every now and then after sex the skin breaks open like a cut, i guess i get to big for the skin when erected and the skin has already passed the head but it doesn't bleed just hurts. other than that it don't hurt to piss it is rare it itches, only when i have a break in the skin. what can this be???????

I'm having sort of the same problem right now, about five days ago my wife and I had a very intense intercourse session, and the next day I felt minor pain and redness on the foreskin. I went like that for a couple of days without major problems, until a couple of nights ago we had sex again. It was very painful but still kept going 'til the end.

Yesterday, on close inspection of my retracted foreskin I noticed a reddish area with three or four small cuts on it, and the skin in that area feels somewhat dry.

It hurts sometimes while urinating or even while walking, and on skin retraction it hurts a lot as the cuts are being teared again (at least that's what I think)

I've never had problems before, I'm 35 now and been married for almost two years, so I'm having more frequent intercourse than before, and perhaps we donīt allow a lot of time for healing.

So, I would appreciate some advice on any cream, oil or something that I can do to take proper care of the "wound" and speed up the healing process.?

thank you

Uncircumcized penis foreskin peeling and redness solution based on my experience.

I noticed that on the tip of my penis there was red spot and soft layer of skin on the forehead of penis all over was peeling. Even on outside of penis the skin was bit red and unusual. It wasn't iching but just looking at it scared me. Was worried how do I go to the doctor, its embarrasing. But thank God.

I cleaned the part with luke warm water and applied CORTISONE.10 Plus (1% Hydrocortisone Anti- Itch Creme). I got it from CVS Pharmacy.

I used it for 3 times a day for about 1 week and everything is back to normal. I thought I should post here as many others have similar problem and my experience could be very helpful to others.

For yeast infection I have heard Lotrimin ointment helps.

Monistat works the best for yeast infections. Lotrimin or Lamisel are not strong enough.

Gents,

I too have suffered from the same problem as you. I believe it is called Lichen Sclerosus, as the subject line reads in this post. I searched (on the world's most used search engine that begins wih G) Lichen Sclerosus and found that it does occur and as our friend above posted, circumcision is the remedy. Although it is rare in men, and yes, i am one of the "chosen ones"!

I have not been to a doc yet although, I shall go armed with my search results, as it is apparently a rare occurrence in men. Lucky us! NOT! A problem for me though is I've already had a couple of melanomas (skin cancers) cut out on my body and apparently this condition can lead to skin cancer. So see your doc asap fellas.

Imagine that! Skin cancer of your penis. Perish the thought!

All the best gents and I hope you all get it sorted out soon. It's a horrible sensation though, I must admit, when the foreskin feels so tight it's going to give way and split.

Adios amigos
