Is HHZole Cream Safe If It Comes In Contact With Glans?

I am 23 years old and I have a steady girlfriend since the last 2 years and we have been having regularly having sex. But since the last three months i have noticed that my foreskin has thickened causing the opening end of the foreskin to shrink in size. Because of this, I am not able to pull my foreskin back. So when I have intercourse i usually get a minute cut in the inside of my foreskin which causes pain. I met a couple of doctors, one of them ( a surgeon) said that Il need circumcision. but a dermatologist said that I can use HHZole cream on the thickened part of the foreskin. My question is that the thickened part is situated in the inside of the foreskin so to apply the ointment i have to roll the skin back as much as i can. And after I am done applying, I roll it down to its normal position (over the glans) which causes the cream to come in contact with my glans.
Is the cream unsafe for glans? because the cream is said to be used for external use only.

Hi
Yes you can use it on the glans penis it will not have any dangerous effect on glans
But due to inflammation of foreskin you might suffer from phimosis that is the inability of foreskin to retract over the glans leading to pain in glans penis.
I actualy agree with your surgeon you should get circumscion done otherwise you will get this issue again and again.
