Hi,
Welcome to XXXXXXX and thanks for your query.
Please get his sugars checked to look for and rule out diabetes and control if necessary.
Try LIQUID PARAFFIN meant for skin use in addition to coconut oil even at times when he does not have sex, like twice daily for a month or two.
Hope this helps. Kindly revert back for doubts if any....

Hi
Welcome back.
It should be available over the counter.
If not, a dermatologist should be aware of the availability.
Best regards
