Is Peeling Dry Skin On The Navel Area A Concern?

I have dry skin that I can peel of on my bell-end and was wondering whether its the shower gel that I m using. It s not painful or causing discomfort but obviously it s making me worry. I m not sexually active and haven t been for a couple of years. I first noticed it a few months ago but then it went away. I clean often and was wondering whether its a common problem?

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
As a first line management, you can apply low potency steroid creams like betamethasone for symptomatic relief. If the lesion persists, it is better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.
Wishing all the best.
thanks
