What Causes Red Spots On The Foreskin?

I have this weird stingy feeling in my penis after I masturbated today. I took a look and there s this little red sore spot where the foreskin meets on the bottom of the head. By the way I m uncircumcised. I feel like I stretched the skin too much, and now I created a small wound. What has happen, and how do I treat it?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
The reason why you could be having red spot on the foreskin is due to mechanical overstretching of skin during masturbation leading to skin abrasion.
Kindly do the following to overcome it.
1. Cleanse the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. Apply Neomycin skin ointment over the lesion as thin layer.
3. Wear loose fitting undergarments preferably made of cotton.
4. Abstain from sexual activities till the lesions subside completely.
Maintain good personal hygiene.
Gradually, you should be able to overcome the symptoms and be back to normal.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
Regards,
Dr.Ashakiran.S.,
