Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Foreskin has been red and sore for 5 months and is not sexual related have been to a dermatologist and have tried several creams Nyaderm HC , Nyaderm with Fucidic Acid, Lotrimin, Eledel all they do is irritate the skin and make it worse . I never had problems retracting my foreskin before this but it seems the creams used have made the skin look thin and my foreskin does not retract as easy as before I had this problem.
