What Causes A Red Patch On The Foreskin?
Hi, I have had a red/white patch on my foreskin for the past 5 months. I am not sure where it came from and it hasn’t disappeared since. There is no pain other than the occasional tingle and no pain when urinating. There has been no other change. I am worried as to what it is and why it hasn’t gone
