Why Is Penis Skin Peeling Off After Applying Garlic And Aloe Vera?

Hello, I have a question. A few months ago a rash appeared on my penis just below the head. It was itchy but I avoid scratching it. I applied aloe Vera on it due to its antibacterial , antiviral , antifungal properties. But then tow days ago I decided to rub crushed garlic because the itch would leave and come back when I did not apply the aloe. One I put garlic I felt a burnin sensation and when I d leave a piece of garlic under my foreskin the burn would intensify. I rubbed garlic and delt with the burn until it subsided. I slept on it and the skin turned darker. I washed it in the morning and applied more aloe Vera and at night I showered and now the darker skin is peeling off I m scared of the happening. The peeling skin is easily removed by just rubbing it off and is painless. Please help

Hi,

I think it is not a good idea experimenting on your private parts. There are qualified research people with a equipped environment available for that. What you suffer can be due to balanitis - local anti-fungal cream with steroid can help you. If you had unprotected sex - need to rule out sexually transmitted infection. Share picture for confirmation.

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