skin on penis tears during intercourse Posted: 02-13-08 22:48pm
My wife and I have been married and
monogamous for seven years, but over the
past nine months or so I have developed a
problem; every time we have sex, the skin
on the top of the shaft of my penis tears
in multiple places. The tiny lacerations
always look the same; long, thin, shallow,
horizontal %u201Ccuts%u201Dacross the
shaft, which take days to heal and then
reoccur. After intercourse, the area is
always red, irritated and mildly
uncomfortable and the tears in the skin
are visible.
I%u2019m wondering if there is something
wrong with the skin in that area, a fungus
or something, which is hampering my
ability to heal properly. Topical
antifungal treatments have no affect and
anything in cream form that touches the
skin of my penis causes a HORRIBLE
allergic reaction, with major swelling
(would be nice under other circumstances),
itching and discomfort. I thought that
perhaps I could I have developed an
allergy to her vaginal discharges or tha
maybe her ph was really acidic for some
reason, but it also occurs when I wear a
condom and even when I masturbate.
We have tried to wait for a sufficient
amount of time between intercourse
activity so that the area could heal, but
anything more that six or seven days is
nearly impossible%u2026..for her. After three days of
healing time the area looks normal, but
sexual contact starts the whole fiasco
over again%u2026.and again%u2026.and
again.
