What Causes Red Rash On Penis Head?

Hey, I have a a red circle on my penis head, it's about 1 inch in diameter, it doesn't hurt or anything, it just turns more red when erect. I don't have STDs or such. But I do masturbate a lot. I've been looking for an answer, but doesn't seem to be getting me anywhere. One suggestion to me was that it's probably because I masturbate too much, and I cause the penis head to have a stretch mark or something.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Red rash what you are complaining of appears to be due to the mechanical injury caused by excessive masturbation. Kindly cleanse the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily. Apply antibiotic cream following cleansing like Fucidin cream over the lesion as a thin layer. You can apply moisturizer cream over the region at bedtime. Kindly abstain from masturbation till the lesions heal and decrease the frequency of masturbation after the lesions heal completely.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ashakiran. S.
