Itchy cut looking thing on penis shaft. dr gave me antifungal cortizone (hydrocortisone). 3 weeks later, the same. virgin. hurts when i masturbate. stop masturbating?

See a dermatologist: You won't stop masturbating. Perhaps you need to adjust your technique if you are irritating yourself. Since you failed to improve with your DR's prescription, consider a visit to a skin specialist.
