Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello Doctor, I have recently developed a darker spot on the side/head of my penis. I haven t been sexually active in 4 years but it has occurred since I have been masdurbating, I didn t use lubricant or anything all the times that I did, so I have a feeling I have answered my own question. It is like a burn, darker coloured skin circling a bright pink patch where the skin has rubbed. I masdurbate differently by massaging the tip rather than grabbing it with my whole hand and this has occurred where my fingers rub. I ve had this for months now and I have masdurbated at times when I ve had it but I need some help besides stopping masdurbation for a while, I can do that, but does it just heal on it s own or is there some cream I can put on it? Could really use some help! Thank you.

Hi,
Your problem can be most likely due to fungal infections. I would suggest using ointments with combination of antifungal agents like Miconazole and corticosteroids like Beclomethasone for local application. Avoid tight underwear. Use hypoallergenic soaps for washing genital area.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nishad B. N., General & Family Physician
