Hello. Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagic
Genital skin is very delicate. Washing with a soap Or dettol can be too harsh for this area. It may be one cause for dried up appearance.
I would suggest that you use just plain lukewarm water to clean the area.
Another possibility is that you may have developed a mild candidal infection (balanitis), probably acquired sexually from you sexual partner.
You may try an OTC antifungal e.g clotrimazole 1% cream, twice daily for a week.
Hopefully these measures together would produce the desired results
Regards
