hi there, I m a 6 3 male 27 years old a 196 lbs. the past few months I have developed an itch under my foreskin. At first there was a thick build up that would form after a day. Now there isn t as much discharge but the head and foreskin of my penis are a bit swollen has dry skin comparable to sunburn lips before the crack and peel. My left inner thigh itches every once and a while but no marks or rash

Hi,
I have gone through your query.
Discharge under foreskin you have mentioned is smegma. You need to clean it frequently as it may be associated with fungal infection over foreskin and inner thigh.
Keep the area clean and dry. Ointment containing clotrimazole or miconazole can be applies over the area of itch. In a week time it will resolve.

Wish you a good health.
