My foreskin is swolen and really painfull when touched?!
Question: My foreskin is swolen and really painfull when touched?
Answers:
It could be caused by lots of things... Too rough masturbating, rubbing it roughly with your hand, using a different laundry soap. Using soap on the head under the foreskin is very hard on the sensitive skin. Using a different soap than you are used to. Not keeping it clean can also lead to irritation.
Have you changed any of these things in the last couple days?
Is it just red, is it raw or is there any discharged fluid under the foreskin?
You can get a small bowl & fill it with cool to warm (NOT HOT) water and a little salt. Then pull your foreskin open and soak your penis in the water for 10 minutes. When you take it out of the water, gently dry under the foreskin with a clean cloth. This should help with the swelling and the irritation. You can do this a couple times if it helps.
Good luck man, I hope this helps...
personal experience and research
well if you were older i would say you may have sexually transmitted infection. (i am hoping at your age that is not a possibility)
could also either be thrush or urine infection.. for whatever reason tell your mum and or dad and go see a doc... its fine dont be embarrased docs see these things 10-20 times a day so dont feel shy just go see! :) good luck x
It sounds like you have balanitis, it's a condition in uncircumcised guys and can cause soreness and discomfort for the sufferer. You need to see a doctor or urologist to get it sorted. Fortunately I'm circumcised and don't suffer from this condition.
