What Causes Itching Sensation On The Penis?

hi i have been having the itchy problem in my penis for the last one week. In fact i clean my penis everyday. I feel ok for sometime after taking shower. i start getting itchiness after some time. I am really confused. Just now I opened my foreskin of my penis and observed it very closely. I do not find any redness, or inflammation. But i find it to be so dry. Would the dryness cause itchiness in the penis. How to avoid it. Infact I observed it very clearly now after I left my foreskin open for sometime. And I do not have this itchiness when I have my foreskin open. Please advise me. Its really killing my brain. Thanks.

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your symptoms could be due to contact dermatitis, fungal infection, overuse.
Use of perfumed soap and cosmetics aggravate the itching.
Take following advises:
Pull the fore skin and then wash with warm water
Apply man 1man oil
Wear pure cotton loose inner and change it frequently after the work out
Keep the area clean
Apply candid cream
Use mild unperfumed soap like dove
Hope this may help you
