Dead Skin Peels Off When The Foreskin Of Penis Is Pulled Back. Used Facial Scrub. No Relief. Any Suggestions?
If Im to pull my foreskin back, the ring under my head and foreskin has become very weird. I have layers of dead skin it just peels off all the way around that area. And if Im to peel it all off, then a day or 2 later the layer is there again and its a repeating process that is getting beyond control. Its impossible to peel off all layers, and now the skin is uneven. I tried to use a facial scrub to get rid of all layers of dead skin and let my skin breath, it looks like its improving but not 100%

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns
I went through your description. I suggest you not to worry much. I don't agree with you because face scrub cannot cure skin problems. In fact, you are not having any skin problems. The dead skin you are talking about might actually be a layer of semen, urine, dust, micro organism etc. It usually happens when we are unhygienic. Wash your area under foreskin daily twice and you will see difference.
Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
