Dryness on penis glans

2026-01-15 02:31:25
I'm having dryness and skin is like flaking type on glans and body since 7 days. I have applied coconut oil for 2 days. On the glans the skin is getting peeled off and new skin is coming. But there is little redness on the glans. I'm worried about it. I used to mastubrate daily at night. Please help me

Hi there young man... Masturbation at night has no specific relationship to the dryness unless you don't wash post masturbating or if you are using some soap 🧼 that is causing an allergic reaction and subsequent dryness. Coconut oil appears to have helped you. However, if the dryness is linked to some allergy or infection (eg Hsv) then that will have to be addressed. Fungal infections don't usually present this way. Have you been sexually active aside from the masturbation? A more detailed history and a personal consultation may be in order.
Next Steps
Online or any in person Consultation with a Dermatologist. If Banglore based most welcome across.
Health Tips
Use gentle cleanser like Dove 🕊️ or Cetaphil to clean the area post masturbation etc and not harsh 🧼 Check your lube/condom etc (if using something like this) as one may be allergic to something and may present with this dryness.

If its itchy as well , it could be fungal infection. Other possibilities are allergic reaction to any lube you may be using. not washing after masturbation can cause fungal infection . Maintain proper hygiene.
Next Steps
Wash and maintain hygiene . Use plain vaseline not coconut oil. If its itchy consult online.
