General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to fungal and bacterial infection. Ointments containing combination of anti fungal like miconazole , antibacterial like gentamycin and corticosteroids like beclamethasone for local application will be helpful. Avoid soaps and irritants to wash the area and instead you can use saline or warm water. Do exercise of sliding foreskin up and down gently. If there is no improvement then consult a general surgeon to rule out severe phimosis. In such case circumcision is the definite treatment.
Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
