What Causes Dryness On The Penis With Itchy Rashes?

I recently went to the Dr after noticing there my penis and balls were becoming dry, and a couple red, itchy spots occured. Before it sweated a lot, but I was given a steroid cream. I used it for a month and symptoms got better..however now the shaft is becoming itchy again and a more pronounced red spot is on bottom of shaft. It looks like the skin is very dry. Any help?

Hi,

If you had unprotected sex, need to think of STI.

If not, it can be a fungal infection.
Application of steroid with antifungal cream can help you.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. S.R.Raveendran, Sexologist
