Penis Irritated and Rash Developed after Masturbation Posted: 07-01-06 01:53am
I began to find that the base of my penis
was becomming inflamed after masterbation.
A day later (i stopped masterbating once I
saw the inflammation), I found that a
confined space of skin between the base of
my penis and lower abdomen (about the size
of nickle) was beginning to peel. Shortly
thereafter it began to ooze. I cleaned the
area and put some baby powder on it. It no
longer oozes and appears to be healing but
now there is a rash that is spreading on
my testicles and around the base of my
penis. It does not itch or appear bumpy.
It is just shiny and red and covers the
majority of skin on my testicles. I'm not
sexually active so I don't think it could
be an std. Also, I don't sweat very much
and have decent hygiene, so I don't think
it's jock itch either. Any advice or
suggestions would be very much
appreciated.
Thanks

The rash that you describe could be an
allergic reaction to the baby powder. I
recommend you visit a dermatologist for a
complete examination, diagnosis, and
treatment!
