Dry foreskin, tiny cracks
For last few months I have been suffering from the following problems in my outer skin of penis
1. It's getting dry always
2. Tiny cracks on the top of the outer skin of penis with burning sensation
3. Sometimes itching
Note: I am single and and hitherto no sexual intercourse has been done by me so chances of STD is NIL I guess.
Note: I am applying moisturizers everyday and not using any soaps in penile area to recover. Please help.
