Balanitis? Penis Tip Is Red And Sensitive For Years
Sep 24, 2014
Ever since I could remember the tip of my penis has been very sensitive to touch, even if I realize that uncircumcised mens' penises are somewhat sensitive to the touch, mine is like borderline impossible to feel without getting extreme discomfort. It's also quite reddish almost all the time. For quite a few years I know I wasn't cleaning it properly, and up until a couple years ago I know I had some smegma under the foreskin that I was too hesitant to peel off due to the pain. A couple years ago I finally decided to do it and got all of it off, and now I can pull the foreskin all the way back, but the discomfort is still there. I started using a balanitis cream thinking it would help, but it hasn't really done much. Do you have any idea as to what may be going on?
I'm 21 years old right now, if that matters.

I’ve had a red/inflamed penis head for a couple of years now. My foreskin is tight when erect, which I think means I have mild phimosis (of which balanitis is often connected to).
Symptoms include - slight odour, red/inflamed, sore to touch, a bit of white/cream smegma build up around the head. Because I am not sexually active, it cannot be an STI and it is for that reason I have never thought much of it - I often rinse it in the shower, but have never really thought of going to the doctor, because it doesn’t really hurt that much.
From what I’ve researched it looks like fungal Balanitis. Can this be fixed with over the counter 1% Clotrimazole Canesten Cream? If so, I would like to try this first and then go to the doctor, if it doesn’t.

I am really nervous. I am 14 years old and my foreskin has gone off the head and retracted back the way. Now the head is out and it is very sensitive and hurts when anything touches it and I am finding it very comfortable

I recently had a episode of Balanitis. Doctors prescribed Canesten cream which was extremely effective within the first 2 days, after which my symptoms had slowly returned. I've had this on-going for some time to the point where I can't determine what is normal and what isn't however I do know that I'm still having the itching sensation and soreness. The redness is there occasionally but this is hard to identify sometimes as it looks perfectly normal sometimes and other times it does not..
I have also noticed a few other things too whether its related or not I don't know but I have noticed that my foreskin (even after getting out the shower) will have this "clinging to the penis head" issue. It's not "stuck" it simply peels back...like it was moist even though it's dry. This isn't there permanently but is there more often than not.
The only other issue i've noticed since having this balanitis is that my foreskin seems to cover the entire penis head (it never used to) it would normally sit around the top half of of the penis head with the tip visible. Now the foreskin will cover it completely and either need to be peeled back (as described above) or will simply be extending outwards of about 1 cm. Again i don't know how abnormal this is as i've seen picture on google and it is apparently normal but its just not how mine used to be so for me its abnormal.
I have been to the doctors and they seem to think im perfectly fine but will consider referring me but is there anyone here that has experienced this or knows how to treat it?

I noticed yesterday that I had a stinging, burning sensation when my penis brushed against my boxers. Ouch!! When I checked it out the entire foreskin was red, inflamed and very sensitive. Not only that, but the glans is also red and sensitive to touch. I have a visible band around the head where the foreskin covers. Any advice fellas? Any OTC medications that work? I did google it and some say Lotrimin, I'm just a little cautious when it comes to my member. Any advice? Also, what say you? Do we soap or not? (BTW sorry if this posted twice.)

I think I have balanitis - I have had a sore and red penis for over a year. It gets worse after sex because the thin skin covering the glans has bonded to the foreskin due to the infection and during sex it tears, causing an open split or wound. Some days it is very smooth and normal looking. It's like the thin skin of the glans has continued to grow over the ridge so I no longer have a ridge around the bottom of my penis - it's covered over. I feel like tearing it all around so I can expose the ridge but it is raw flesh underneath and would be a nightmare.

Basically I think I have BXO, because there is this white area on my penis. Its underneath the head and also partially on my the inside of my foreskin. however, there are no hard lumps or skin like most of the articles that i read said. It looks more like its the skin itself, rather than something on the skin. I had this for a long time, and it has never bothered me. I did some research and quite frankly I'm kind of scared. Almost all the articles had the same information. and it listed symptoms like itching, pain, or being unable to retract foreskin of the penis. I can confirm that I have none of these symptoms. It doesn't itch, there's no pain, no irritation or anything whatsoever, this is why it has never really bothered my. however, it does look very much like what is described to be BXO, accept for the pain and itching etc. From what I have read, depending of the severeness of the disease, the only treatment that seems to be definitive is Circumcision, and I really don't want to resort to that. So my question is, how severe would my case be?, what are the possible treatments?

I have what seems to be classic Balanitis. It seems to come and go. The glands of my penis look puffy and shiny when I am erect. This condition has been with me for about 5 years now and nobody seems to be able help me. One of the many doctors I have seen gave me a C-Reactive Protein test to test for infection in my body and nothing came up. Is this normal for Balanitis? Unfortunately I have to have an erection to show the puffiness of my penis glans and that is difficult when you're standing in front of a doctor.
Should balanitis show up in a C-Reactive protein test and how on earth can I get rid of this problem. I've used every anti fungal cream in the world as well as a myriad of other creams and nothing will cure it. It's starting to take a psychological effect on me. Please help.

I had unprotected sex with my Ex GF years ago. Well she happen to have a yeast infection.
Well as you know i got a male yeast infection. My symptoms were typical.I had itching, pain, redness, and hurt to pee. Well I was given one pill, a powder, a cream and sent on my way.
Well I had a rash at the tip of the penis. I still cannot get rid of the rash. I have tried TONS of different creams with no luck. Some actually cause more inflammation.
Well i have tried many home remedies with no luck as well.
My next plan is to go to a Dermatologist.
Just on a side note. At the time i was not circumcised. Then i went to a Urologist who suggested to get cut. So i did. But the rash did not go away.
From the research i have done I'm sure it is Balanitis.

I'm not concerned about size or anything, but I need to know when my penis will start to grow, I'll give all my signs and missing signs of puberty I can think of.
I'm 15 years old.
It's 3.5 inches in girth and length exactly.
My voice hasn't changed much at all since I was younger.
I'm not overweight at all but I've got a pretty big amount of fat on my chest yet nowhere else(man boobs), I also have little to no muscle definition.
I look like 12ish in my face according to polling a lot of people including my family and my own personal opinion.
I'm 5'3
Of my body hair, I have had some soft "baby hair" in my armpits and shaft area since about 13ish, and since about 6ish months or so I now have the curly, coarse, dark hair in both areas, but little enough to count if you were determined.
My body odor is god-awful if I don't keep it under control.
There's acne on my hairline and some on my nose and eyebrows area.
-
Simply, I want to have a rough estimate on when my penis will start to grow at a fast rate, or perhaps an estimate on when I'll be in the 5.5 inch length and 4 inch girth area assuming that I'll have something around 7 inch length 4.5inch girth based on my family.
A bonus question would be when will I start getting taller, more muscle defined, and deeper voiced?

Ok I'm 19 years old and I think my health is good. Anyways, my gag reflex started one day after I was eating and I just looked at the food I was eating and suddenly didn't want it. At first it was just when I would brush my teeth and after using mouthwash, I would usually cough and heave or spit out water. And now I have noticed that after I eat, I can feel my gag reflex. Like I can feel that there is food stuck there (it's probably not, but I can feel something nasty there), and one time I touched my throat (outside neck area) and I wanted to vomit. Now I have an issue sometimes with the front of my shirt collar touching my neck area, because I feel suffocated and it makes the food feeling even worse.
I do salt gargling sometimes, but I still have it! Any help? I also get stomach aches more frequently now (I have gotten 3 so far in these past months and have thrown up.)

I am a 31 year old male. I am suffering from ED from the last 10 years. I am currently using cialis 5mg for daily use. I used to get aroused normally while being sexually stimulated. But now i dont always get erection naturally. I have to massage the penis to get an erection, while i dont get any erection when performing foreplay with my partner. The erection even under medication is not hard enough to perform a satisfactory intercourse. I frequently urinate atleast 10 to 15 times a day, sometimes even more. I have been diagnosed with Diabetes insipidus, Have a history of known diabtetis in my parents medical report. Please kindly suggest what should i do.
