What Does An Abrasion On The Foreskin Indicate?

Yes, I have a question about what I think is an abrasion on the foreskin? I m uncircumcised and it s just where it folds over the head. Like, when it covers the head and there s all that loose skin, it s right there. I was just wondering if you could help me with what it might be? It appeared after masturbation.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
What abrasion you have noticed over foreskin following masturbation act appears to be superficial skin injury caused due to mechanical factors.
You can do the following to overcome it.
1. Clean the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. Following drying, apply Neomycin skin cream over the lesions.
3. Take Tablet. Levocetirizine once a day if you have itching sensation.
4. Apply moisturizer cream or lotion over the lesion at bedtime.
5. Wear loose undergarments to provide proper ventilation and avoid friction.
6. Abstain from sexual activities till the lesion heals completely.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
