Swollen & Itching Foreskin.
Hello Doctors, A few days back I felt my foreskin itching underneath & later got rashes and cuts on the penis foreskin & SWOLLEN foreskin.
I have a tight foreskin but was able to pull it back while having sex, but now I'm not even able to see the penis forehead.
After researching online I have also applied the cream named "Cotrimazole" which gave me relief from itching but swollen has not reduced. Not able to retract the foreskin due to it being swollen.
Due to this condition, I'm unable to clean the place and it gives me a very uncomfortable feeling. I'm really worried about the situation and need to come out of this. I'll be really thankful to you if you'll help me come out of this situation. Once again Thank you
