What Causes Tight Foreskin?
I have a yeast infection on my foreskin. I recently had dental treatment and I had to take antibiotics. It has been 3 days since I started using the anti fungal cream but my foreskin has become very tight. It is becoming uncomfortable. Is this normal ?

Hello
There might be some bacterial infection or inflammation of the foreskin
In my opinion you should clean it thoroughly with antiseptic solution or soap and keep it clean and moist.
If you can provide me more relevant information and a photograph, I will be able to guide you better.
You should apply antibacterial ointment like mupirocin.
Maintain good hygiene and have plenty do fluids
Avoid sex or use condom until it heals completely
Hope this answers your question
