Suggest Treatment For Ring Around Penis That Burns
hello. My son is 9 years old. The ring around his penis hurts and he says it burns and hurts. I asked if it hurts if he pees and he says not really. I gave him a tylenol and put chammomil around the head of his penis. It calmed the redness and pain down and he was able to sleep. This isn't the first time he complained of this, what could this be I am so concerned???
Thank you,
Momma

Hi,
It seems that due to collection of smegma and not cleaining might give rise to some infection on the ring of penis.
Clean local part with warm water and apply antibiotic cream locally.
Make a habit of cleaning smegma by averting fore skin while giving shower.
Ok and take care.
