I recently got circumcised about 3 months ago to solve a recurrent yeast infection issue I had been having for a few months. I was also tested shortly after (4 months after last sexual partner) and came up negative for ALL STDS. Also tested for diabetes and came out well under the amount of fasting blood sugar (2x over 2 months) as well as some other blood test (A1C?).
Recently, however, I've noticed on and off irritation along with dry skin on the top of the crown of my penis seemingly every other morning as well as a few hours after I shower.
I don't use any harsh soaps down there, I wear fitted clothes, there is no discharge, no swelling, no bumps or blisters, but there is slight redness and dry skin flakes.
Has anyone else had this issue or know of a solution to this problem? Could a yeast infection have returned? Could it simply be chafing from underwear since it's mainly at the top of the head? Does Balanitis cause these symptoms? What creams are safe to apply to this sensitive area?
I'm seeing a Dermatologist on the 4th but I would like to try some OTC solutions before I start to freak out too much. Thus far I only wash with cold or lukewarm water and gently scrub off the dead skin and dry thoroughly and I'm good for most of the day afterwards. I do have sensitive skin in general and have had scalp/face skin issues when taking hot showers so I've toned those down significantly/apply lotion where appropriate and that seems to help.

Hi bud let me know what the dermatology says? I have the same problem sometimes it’s just dry skin I got told it’s where it rubs in boxers and that I got circumsised in June due to phimosis AND yeast infections constantly have you tried any moisturise on it ? Or even Vaseline ? That will help a lot keep it moisturised
I haven't tried any moisturizer as I was originally told before circumcision not to put anything down there. Then again with foreskin I see why that'd be bad but I'm unsure if it still aplies now. Was thinking of trying aquafore or eucerin since they seem to be the gentlest out there with great reviews online. Out of town for now but may experiement with this when I'm back home Monday and follow up with once a day application after a shower.
Im almost certain it's just dryness as it's where the boxers rub and a shower or quick wash with water usually helps rid of any tightness/flakes for a short while and this isn't painful at all compared to my original yeast infection.
I'll be sure to pass along any info with the creams or from the dermatologist come my appt!
Okay mate let me know yeah it just seems and looks like dry skin I got 50/50 liquid parrifin ointment which I use on mine and it gets rid of mine almost instantly so mention that at dermotogist I suffer with eczema so yeah, but seems to me that it’s just dry skin so try moisturise it trust me
Been a while, but colder showers, sensitive soap change, pat dry not air drying or excessive drying off with towel/keeping exposed to air helped
