Suggest Remedy For Red, Dry Patch Of Skin On Penis
I ve recently developed an area of red, dry skin on my penis. The skin began to peal and under it was a layer of red patch which feels slightly dryer than the rest of my penis but is not itchy. It developed small cuts after sex and therefore I stopped having sex and masturbating. It hasn t dried up or developed cuts since but the red patch remains. I went to a chemist and got an anti fungal cream but it does not seem to be working. I ve been also experiencing dry skin on my nipples which peal and then dry up again after a slight clear discharge. I m not sure if the two are related. I ve had yeast infections before and the problem with my penis seems different to the symptoms before. Any idea what the problem might be?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, it could be the fungal infection it self even the nipple condition, and for that you can try Miconazole cream apply this three or four times in day, it may takes little long time to come around, if it fails to respond then clinical examination is must because in any skin lesion clinical examination is the only best way of diagnosis hope this information helps.
