Ok. I've been looking around and it
seems like I might have balantitis. My
foreskin is swollen and red on the left
side and bottomside of my penis. I'm
afraid there might be an infection because
my girlfriend and I were making out and it
might have been a little too rough,
because afterwards parts of my penis were
very sore. The front or top (not tip) of
the head, the upper and slightly left area
on my foreskin, and the bottom of the head
on the foreskin had small reddish areas (i
think the outer tissue was rubbed off in
those places).
Also, I don't think my foreskin is
"normal" because it rests so that most of
the head of my penis is exposed, but its
not tight or anything, I can pull it all
the way forward and back without any
resistence.
I don't shower enough (about 3 times a
week) so i'm going to start showering a
bit more.
But i'm wondering if I just did something
that wasn't too smart... I just spent
some time in the bathroom and I put a drop
of hydrogen peroxide on the swollen red
area of my foreskin and wow did that thing
foam. So I spent time cleaning it up and
repeating until it did not foam much
anymore.
Any advice on what I should start doing,
continue doing, or stop doing?
By the way, if it makes any difference i'm
15 years old.
Thanks

Showering is very important, especialy
when you're uncut! If the problem
consists, you need to go see a doctor.

Ok, its been almost a week since this
started, and for the last few days i've
been washing with hydrogen peroxide 3 - 5
times a day. Most of the swelling has
gone down, but there is still redness on
the left side (none whatsoever on right
side) still foams a lot when I clean with
hydrogen peroxide (but doesn't foam at all
on right side). I also dry it with
blowdryer on normal (not heated) air,
becaue I read it should be kept dry.
I'm just wondering what I should do now.

It sounds like what you are doing is
helping. Continue a while longer until
the hydrogen peroxide no longer reacts; of
course meaning that there is no longer the
makings of an infection. Any idea at all
of what might have caused this?

You may just be experiencing some serious
chafing little buddy.
