A member asked:
I am an uncircumsized male and i have problems with my foreskin wanting to be dry could it be from diabetes?

Keep it dry: Retracting the foreskin before urinating and during bathing might help as long as the area is dried off well. Chronic moisture exposure can leave the area irritated, leading to the symptoms you have.
