Active Masturbatory, Having Small Red Patches On Penis Head Which Are Sensitive. How To Get Rid Of It?
Hi. I'm 15 and I never had sex. I am an active masturbator, probably a couple times and week. I've been doing this for a year or two so nothingness ally came up. Recently, after the shower, I realized small red patches on my penis head. They aren't bothering much, but they are sensitive to touch. I read that if you masturbate incorrectly, this can happens. What is this and what can I do to get rid of this?

Hi. These looks to be abrasive in nature due to excessive dry rubbing or not using a correct lubricant. Sensitivity will be more. First of all stop masturbating, keep the area clean and dry. It will heal soon. If associated pus like secretions - apply liquid Betadine ( povidone iodine)
