Hey.. This might sound weird, so bare
with me. I'm a 19 yr old guy and as of
recent, i've noticed that once i'm done
masturbating, the head of my penis gets
really... Dry and cracked, like as if you
have really bad skin. This has only
occurred recently, and it's been months
since i've been sexually active with a
girl. It is mostly just the head that
gets really wrinkled and cracked, but as
well just underneath it. (by the way, i'm
uncircumsized). It does not affect my
erection, but after ejaculation, the head
becomes a bit more sensitive and a slight
bit uncomfortable. I am worried that
it's only going to get worse.
Does anyone have a clue what i'm talking
about??? The closest thing I can describe
it as is it's like having chapped lips.
If you can help or give any advice, that'd
be great. Thanks!!!
By the way, this forum rocks. It's
helped me out a few times before with
other issues as well.

Do you masutrbate dry? If you do, I
would start masturbating with some lube
since your uncircumcized.
The dryness might be somewhat due to the
foreskin. That area is often a damper
area (especially when your uncircumzied;
almost not an issue when you are
circumcized) , but in some cases, you
might not have enough moisture which might
be causing the drier skin. I would say
try using some ordinary lotion for a while
and see if that helps. Also be sure to
drink lots of water, as sometimes there is
a connection between not having a enough
water and dry skin.

i have the same problem. it gets really
dry and wrinkly and sometimes flaky and i
put lotion on it but it stays kinda red.
maybe this guy is on to something about
drinking more water, because when i have
sex or wank it i use lube so it cant be
dryness from friction. sometimes when i
havent had sex or jerked it for a while it
gets bad, and sometimes the opposite
happens. it gets red after i HAVE had sex
or jerked it. sometimes it will get a
little itchy or irritated if its red and i
have sex with my gf without a condom.
(sometimes we start out w/o the condom and
then i put it on when i know im getting a
little too close to an eruption) i cant
tell whats causing it because it happens
quite often.
