Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I understand your concern. Itching and burning sensation underneath the penis what you are experiencing is as a result of skin inflammation. Kindly do the following to overcome it. 1. Clean the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily. 2. After drying, apply Neomycin with Hydrocortisone cream over the affected region. 3. Wear loose fitting undergarments preferably made of cotton to avoid friction in the region. 4. Maintain good personal hygiene and avoid sexual activities till the symptoms subside completely. Gradually, your symptoms should subside and be back to normal. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best. Regards, Dr. Ashakiran.S., MBBS., MD.
