Used Neosporin On Penis. Had Allergic Reaction. Used Benedryl. Reaction Went Down. Penis Looks Raw. Cure?

I used neosporin on my penis head and had an allergic reaction. I took some benedryl and the reaction went down. Now I am goin thru the healing process and my penis head looks "raw" where the allergic reaction happened. Its look like a burn. I wrap it up with bandaids during the day but the healing process is going slower than I thought. Any suggestions on how to treat this better?

Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have
developed allergic reaction to your glans due to Neosporin.

It takes at least one week for healing. Take antibiotics to prevent infection.
Ensure to clean your genitals with warm water twice daily.
Apply some soothing Jelly like Xylacaine or Lignocaine Jelly over glans.
It should get cured within a week.
