Could Irritated Penis And Red Foreskin With White Stuff Around Indicate Balanitis?
I have an annoying irritation on my penis. The head and foreskin are bright red with white stuff all over it. I was wondering if it could be balanitis. With some information, I did have unprotected sex and sometimes i clean my penis with scented soap. Would i have to see a doctor for this to get a specific kind of treatment?

Hi
Welcome.
It is difficult to comment without examination. So kindly ask the question in premium panel, where you will be able to upload the picture as well. With that I'll be able to provide you with more specific advice.
For now I suggest you to clean the area with antiseptic soap, wear loose cotton underwear and avoid touching and sex for few days.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
