Looks like mild thrush, balanitis is more severe. Been on antibiotics lately?

i havent no, not been on antibiotics, i thought it would be thrush

in reply toadevlin

Thrush means fungal. Pending a proper diagnosis and based on the fact that generally fungus thrives in warm and moist conditions, you could experiment safely by temporarily removing that ideal environment, i.e. try leaving it exposed for long periods and see if it improves or clears up. If it does then that probably proves it's thrush.

Have you been to the doctors about it?

No just a telephone consultation

You need to do that to get a diagnosis. Using the wrong treatment can cause problems. Take care

Ive had this issue off and on for 1 year.

Terrasil Antibacterial and skin repair has cleared it up tremendously.

They can be attributed to a number of things, some serious and some benign. Get a diagnosis by a physician.
