A member asked:
Is it normal for the head of my penis with the foreskin pulled back to be sensitive to touch?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Foreskin: Yes. This is the most sensitive part of your penis. If it is reddened or inflamed, you may have a fungal dermatitis. This is usually treated with topical anti fungal creams and Hydrocortisone like medications.
