Hello,

Small tear in the penile head is quite common and it is generally develops following sexual intercourse.
Nothing much to worry and it will heal within four to five days and pain will subside in a day or two. You can apply topical antibiotic ointment like mupirocin for better wound healing. Better to avoid coconut oil as it can leads to infection and further complications.

Brief Answer:
You can use brands like Dante penile moisturizer

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Use a moisturizing penis cream. A cream designed especially for the skin in the penis is recommended because regular hand and body lotions may contain chemicals that can trigger allergic reactions. Look for one that contains shea butter and vitamin E, which may help lock in moisture and prevent dryness. Popular brands are Dante penile moisturizing cream.
Coming to frequent urination, do a urine routine yet to rule out infection which can cause frequent urination.
