Brief Answer:
Health measures mentioned.
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
Penis is a sensitive organ with richly supplied blood vessels. To maintain penis hygiene , one should reduce coital frequency to twice a week and no more. Abstain from masturbation as that is a friction which can lead to many troubles like fordyce spots, friction burns and urethritis etc. Use of protection preferably condom in coitus to prevent transmission of infections and STDs. Keep the groin hair free, use hypoallergenic hygiene gel for the hygiene. Wear loose undergarments. Avoid tight ones. Avoid sweating in the groins and around penis. If the penis is uncircumcised, the foreskin attached to the glans of penis may lead t recurrent infections and adhesions ultimately and complication like BXO or even penile cancer. Ideally one should consider therapeutic circumcision.
Nutshell, penis care is necessary and it can prevent so many infections with slight precautions. I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and don't forget to close the discussion please.
