What Causes Inflammation Underneath The Penis?
underneath my penis and slightly on the sides is a red area thats very sensitive to the touch. It doesn't hurt to pee but it isn't healing as I think it should be... I've had this visible sign on my penis for about 2 weeks now. You have any idea what this might be?

Hello,
It can be balanitis like inflammation of glans penis.
I suggest you to upload photo of lesion to comment further.
You can be prescribed antifungal, antibiotic or steroid cream to apply over that.
You need to maintain personal hygiene and keep that area clean.
Hope I have answered your question
