Suggest Treatment For Ingrown Hairs And Red Lumps At The Base Of Penis
Hello, I ve developed what I thought it will be ingrown hairs on the base of my penis. There were some small red bumps (no pus) and I extracted some pubic hairs from the area, and the bumps went flat but the redness won t go. Couple of days later an itchy sensation began, it won t hurt but the redness and the itch it s annoying, I don t know if it may be part of the scarring process or something else. I also have some dryness on the foreskin of my penis, I don t know if there s some connection.

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having fungal infection on the part giving this problem.
Go for shaving of pubic area and keep it well cleaned.
Apply anti fungal cream locally.
There might be having secondary bacterial infection causing soreness and redness.
If require go for one antibiotic medicine course.
Dryness of penile skin might be due to this infection.
Keep local hygiene proper.
Ok and take care.
