I'm dealing with a condition called balanitis, and it's been going on for quite a while now. Could you suggest any creams or tablets that might help?

Hi there i understand your concern regarding your genital health...The main cause of balanitis is poor hygiene. Poor hygiene causes harmful bacteria to overpopulate the area, which can lead to infection...it can be fungal as well... Clinical examination is necessary to diagnose it and to rule out other possible conditions....you may require antibiotic or antifungal creams..Before applying any treatment option, it is important to avoid using irritants such as perfumed soap, lotion, or powder. This prevents further irritation of the foreskin...Consult nearest dermatologist they will do the needful.

I've found a painless ulcer where my penis head meets the foreskin, and it's really got me worried. I haven't had any sexual encounters in the last four months, just been on my own, you know, self-masturbation. What could be causing this?
Since you're experiencing an ulcer-like lesion, its important to get a proper diagnosis from a healthcare professional. They may take a swab or perform an examination to identify any infections or other underlying conditions. If it doesnt improve or if you experience pain, discharge, or other concerning symptoms, its best to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
