  5. Ive been married for 6 years and have a child, but for the past 3 months, Ive been dealing with a problem where my foreskin is very dry, reddish, and the skin flakes off like dandruff. Theres no itching, but its uncomfortable and irritating. This started after a yeast infection, and even after seeing my family doctor and going through a treatment with antibiotics and corticosteroid cream, the problem hasnt gone away. I havent had sex in the last two months because of this, and Im really worried about any long-term effects. Ive never had this issue before and its been really depressing. Can you advise me on what to do next?

Consult a urologist or dermatologist for personalized guidance, and consider self-care measures like gentle cleansing, avoiding irritants, and using fragrance-free products to manage dryness and discomfort.
