Q: penis skin problems

Earlier today I was masterbating and before I finished I noticed that my skin right below the head of my penis was peeling a little bit. It looks like there is flour just on that area(but it was my skin). I thought that maybe it was because I hadn't showered yet today. But that didn't solve the problem. And i am a circumsized male. Can you please tell me what I should do to prevent this from happening again.

Thank you

Do you masturbate with lubricant or not? I could be what people commonly refer to as "chaffing". Just a minor skin irritation from dry masturbation. Try using a water based lubricant. If the problem continues, spreads, becomes painful or uncomfortable, try talking to a doctor.

In the meantime, try using a moisturizing lotion as well. It could just be dry skin.

No i dont, I used to masterbate in the shower so I might just be used to that. Hopefully that's all it is. Thank you though.
