Very Urgent Question, Desperate! Please Help!!! Posted: 12-09-06 19:50pm
Hi. First off, I am circumcized. Over
the last year and a half, the skin near
the tip of my penis, especially on top
within about .5 cm from the urethra, is
extremely sensitive all the time and it
feels terrible chafing all the time. I
used to wear boxers, and it got absolutely
terrible. I would have to literally hold
it in place going up stairs etc. I then
switched over to briefs, which was much
better, but not perfect. Since then,
briefs have slowly gotten worse and worse,
and now it is quite uncomfortable and
annoying. Every step, if it is not held
perfectly in place, it feels like someone
is rubbing sandpaper really hard on my
tip! I got advice from 2 different
doctors, and both said to try twice a day
using hydrocortizone cream, saying it
would be noticeably better within a few
weeks. It has now been almost 2 months,
and nothing. Neither doctor has any more
ideas, other than just wearing briefs,
which I am already doing. It is not from
over or aggressive masterbation.
Yesterday, I bought some really small
briefs which do an excellent job of
holding it in place, but it is still far
from ideal. There is no redness or
irritation, and I have no std's. The skin
is just unfortably supersensitive and it
feels awful rubbing on anything. Does
anyone have any ideas at all?! Any ideas
are greatly appreciated.

I'm not quite sure, but my boyfriend had a
similiar problem when we were first
sexually active. Sometimes he would get
my vaginal fluid on the tip of his penis
(during foreplay) and it would become
irritated. We both are negitive for
std's, so maybe his skin is just
sensitive. I don't know if you are
sexually active or not, but maybe this
could be part of the problem.

Thanks for the idea, but no, it definitely
has nothing to do with that

I can't help you, i'm afraid but I have to
thank you for putting this out there.
This is one of the main reasons that I am
so against circumcision.
The head of the penis *is* sensitive and
the foreskin plays an important part in
protecting that sensitive place.
The only thing I could remotely think of
it de-sensitisation.
Whereby you regularly touch the head to
de-sensitise it to contact. It'll take a
long time and won't be perfect but it may
help.

hi there circumcision is not the problem
it is the simple allergic reaction in my
thought you must use some antihistamines ,
I think that it will solve your problem.

actually, circumcision causes
hyper-sensitivity in many men.
And suggesting someone use drugs, when you
know nothing of the case is plain daft.
Kingfastlane: do not use drugs without
your doctors ok on the matter.

I disagree with sunny on the circumcision
thing - I too am against it. I think you
wouldn't be having this problem if you
were uncut. But he/she may be on to
something about the allergic reaction
comment. It's really common to have an
allergy to washing powder, i'm allergic to
persil for example. If the allergy isnt
severe it could just perhaps manifest
itself solely in this really sensitive
area. If you've tried everything else
you may as well try changing your washing
powder brand, maybe use a 'sensitive' one,
use a gentle fabric conditioner, and put
your clothes on an extra rinse when you
use the washing machine. It's worth a
try, right?
Other than that i'm sure there's nothing
else I can suggest to you that you haven't
tried already. Except maybe ask the
advice of a doctor who gives a sh*t and
doesn't fob you off! Good luck x

Hi again. First of all, everyone i've
talked to who is uncut says that their
head is extremely sensitive. Many who
later get circumcized find it absolutely
amazing, and love it. I really don't
think my problem has anything to do with
allergies, as I have tried different
detergent in my laundry, and I already do
not use soap on my head.

When were you circumcised? If it was at
birth then I have nothing for you. Nut of
you were circumcised at a later age, then
maybe the head of your penis needs to get
used to it. Good luck.
