I am a type 2 diabetic. Recently I have had problems with my foreskin on my penis. It has very tight and dry and now there are small cracks/cuts on it that hurt. Is this related to my diabetes. What can I do because its been a few days and they don t seem to be healing.
First of all, get an HBA1C to confirm your diabetic control. You need to apply anti-microbials and try pulling it down. If not, consult an urologist and get a circumcision done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
