Suggest Remedy For Irritating Foreskin

Posted on Wed, 18 May 2016

Question: My husband and I had vigorous sex over the weekend. My husband is not circumcised. It looks like the foreskin is teared/ irritated where it attaches to the head of the penis. Can you tell me what I need to apply to have it heal properly?

Brief Answer:
Bacitracin ointment!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this lesion your husband has on his penis. I have reviewed the attached image. I will recommend an antibacterial cream called bacitracin. In addition, good hygiene and keep this pen airy and free of too much heat. Also, the will need to refrain from sexual activity to allow for proper healing. Cleansing should be done with a antiseptic solution such a Iodine. Healing may take 10-14days. Keep em posted on his progress.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
