Washing my foreskin
hi seb, could you recommend a brand of soap that will not leave my cock smelly. I have put quite a lot of weight on recently and seem to be more smelly under the arms and especially under my foreskin and it is not nice for anyone concerned. Great site and great learning. love ron
Wash your cock and foreskin regularly. Never use a bar of soap, something in it's contents can cause slight irritation. I like to use Clean&Clear, an exfoliating daily wash by Johnson & Johnson, available in the Uk at Boots. Apply it liberally directly on the cock. Then wash it down firstly with ice cold water and then, with warm. Then to finish the ritual I use "Original Source" Tea Tree & Mint Shower gell. You can get a free sample by clicking here. Never use an anti bacterial soap, as this cause damage to the enviroment, you can image how much good it would do your cock seb cox
If your foreskin becomes red, sore and itchy you might have thrush. Thrush is a fungal infection that can be treated with creams you can buy at the chemist. See your doctor if it doesn't get better or keeps coming back. Soaps that moisturise as well as clean can aggreviate balenitis aka 'penis thrush'. Balanitis is a term used to include all inflammation of the skin covering the head of your cock. The most common causes are: - irritants: neglected hygiene and tight foreskin (particularly in young boys) lead to irritation by smegma (a cheesy substance secreted under the foreskin). - seborrhoeic dermatitis: an inflammatory rash of uncertain cause that is commonly seen on the scalp, behind the ears and in the skin folds. - thrush (candida) - contact allergy: latex and additives used in rubber manufacture (eg condoms) and constituents of skincare products. - diabetes. Treatments : - relevant antibiotic or antifungal drug - steroid creams of mild to moderate strength Jake
i am uncut, and sometimes get balantis (tightening of foreskin) I've found that betamethasone cream applied for a week takes care of this. You can get by prescription or without one in Mexico (sometimes combined with other 'sone' creams for a all purpose cream) I've come to learn that high blood sugar makes the foreskin tighen michael
Betamethasone, as you may be aware, is a moderately potent steroid cream (under the brand name Betnovate, in the UK)- My concern is that Michael is thinning the skin of the prepuce and glans-penis by using this cream on what I would assume to be a fairly regular basis. (He states that he uses it weekly). Further, actually USING this type of cream on the genitals can make the problem worse - Hence the reason why the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (UK) strictly limits the regions, potency and duration of treatment this type of steroid cream can be used on/for E Mc C
