I've been feeling really off because of this sensitivity issue with my penis after I masturbate. I hit it up and down, and then for days, it gets all tender and sore, coming and going. It's uncomfortable and bums me out. I'm uncircumcised, and a couple of days after masturbating, I touched and pressed the erect penis, and it got super sensitive where I hit it. Now, there's like a pain and itchiness where I pressed it. I couldn't pull back the foreskin completely until I was 11, but there wasn't any infection. Walking and running can feel really uncomfortable. Do you think this will go away on its own? Would love some advice.

It sounds like you may have experienced temporary sensitivity or soreness from friction or pressure during masturbation, especially around the foreskin area. This can cause discomfort and irritation, but it usually resolves with rest and avoiding further pressure or friction. If symptoms persist or worsen, it's a good idea to see a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation and to rule out any underlying issues.

I'm experiencing some discoloration on the top part of my glans after being treated for secondary phimosis with a cream from a dermatologist. Theres no pain or irritation, but the doctor mentioned it could be LSABXO and might not be treatable. Is there any way to treat this discoloration, and if it's not treated, what could happen? Also, I've noticed I can keep the foreskin retracted without feeling any tightness. Is it okay to do this auto-circumcision all the time?

Discoloration Treatment and Potential Complications 1. Treatment options: For the discoloration, similar to vitiligo, treatment options are limited. Your dermatologist may recommend: - Topical corticosteroids to reduce inflammation. - Topical immunomodulators to modulate the immune response. - Phototherapy, such as narrowband UVB, to stimulate repigmentation. 2. Potential complications: If left untreated, the discoloration may: - Persist or worsen over time.
