Brief Answer:
eczema of the penis
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns
You are concerned about a raw area on the tip of your penis. This is probably eczema of the penis. I usually recommend using OTC hydrocortisone for 1-2 weeks if this does not wotk then ask your doctor for a low dose triamcinalone cream. This is just a bit more powerful steroid cream and will stop the redness and raw area. This is a chronic condition and I recommend using the cream on and off depending on symptoms. You can not use the cream daily as it will cause damage to the skin but if you use it sparingly it will control your symptoms
