Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
after alot of intimate use with the Jergens brand of lotion, my penis got very raw and then dry. so i stopped using it. along with the dry skin came red Psoriasis likes spots on the head and around just beneath. i am not using any lotion and not masturbating. spots seem to come and go perhaps due to aggravation. i have clobetasol propionate that i use occasionally on my elbows. but i worry it is not okay to use on the penis. what can i do? i cannot imagine that using a moisturizer that upset my skin for a few weeks could cause permanent damage but i am also worried at the same time. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Suggest Treatment For Dry Penile Skin
Hello, The symptoms seem to be related to penile psoriasis. I suggest using a topical treatment. You should be able to control psoriasis easily using a weaker steroid such as Hydrocortisone cream such as Dermatop. A newer option is the non-steroid Protopic ointment which can also be tried. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
