Thrush dry foreskin
I think I may have thrush. I am diabetic, and I shower everyday, but I think I may have gotten thrush. I’m 17 and not sexually active, the skin is cracking and leaving small cuts, and causing the foreskin to be hard to pull back. Also sometimes itchy, and producing lots of smegma
