Q: Scaly, Wrinkled Skin

Ok so I'm an uncircumcised 14 year old male. Recently, my penis head has become scaly and wrinkled. The scalyness/ wrinkledness is more visible when my penis is erect. The scales/ wrinkles get larger and larger as it goes from near the hole of the penis to the outside... And the areas that are affected look a little more brown/ tan(a really small difference but if you examine it on high powered light you can see it) . It isn't irritating or red. It all started on last saturday when I was helping clean out our town's musem. It was really dirty in there and I helped take random crap out of there for like 2-3 hours. Then I helped pick up the branches of a tree that was cut off. After it started raining and I went home after it started pouring out. Anyways when I went to the home and took a shower, I washed my hands with soap then I washed myself for a bit and then I started masturbating because I met a hot chick there but she didn't show any signs of interest. When I started, I noticed that there were some kind of small scaly spots on my penis, but I thought it would go away but it didn't. Since then the scales have spread to almost everywhere on the penis head. I'm thinking its a bacterial/ fungus infection because it was really dirty in the place I went to. I don't really want to go to a doctor because #1 my doctor is a 50 minute drive #2 I would have to show my parents... #3 if the doctor asks me if I masturbate I'm not sure how to respond.... I know my parents would be in the room if I go to the doctor, so they will hear that I masturbate and that would be really embarrassing (My parents, mom specifically, thinks that if you look at porn/ masturbate then you'll become a rapist/ sex offender). Anyways is there anything I should check for to test what it is. I've never been touched by a girl so I'm pretty sure its not an STD. Note: I tried putting on Jergen Cucumber lotion and vaseline, but neither helped or decreased wrinkles.

It sounds to me like a case of dry skin. Keep applying a moisturizer.

Also: your parents do NOT have to be in the room when you get examined by a doctor. Secondly, if you tell your doctor you masturbate, he won't tell your parents. Thirdly, just tell your parents you have this problem and you want to see a doctor about it. You're old enough to know when something's not right with your body... old enough, in fact, to have enough privacy from your parents. If you still feel uncomfortable, talk to your dad about it... it'll probably be easier!
