Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Suggest Treatment For Foreskin Soreness Post Intercourse
Husband is type 2 diabetic and uncircumcised. Had balantis in past and used cortisone cream. Left dry patches and when foreskin is pushed back for sex he gets sore in a couple of hours. Also sometimes has problem pushing back foreskin. Any suggestions?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your husband is suffering from phimosis which is tightening of foreskin over glans penis due to swelling of glans penis due to balanitis or any other infection. Since your husband is a diabetic and he would get this balanitis again and again due to weaken immunity due to diabetes. I would suggest you to get him antibiotics and anti inflammatory for this time and ultimately get his circumcision done which would be the best option in the scenario.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
