A member asked:
I washed foreskin and penis with 90 cent alcohol and it burnt internally throughout penis from base. is it coz i put alcohol inside foreskin n glands?

Sounds like it: Penises generally do better without the alcohol. It's safer to stick to cleaning with mild soap and water next time. Also, if the foreskin is too tight, one's primary care doctor should be able to help solve that problem.

Would rubbing alcohol applied to penis glans and foreskin cause irritation, redness, raw painful skin, small bumps, pain in testicles, numbness on penis head and skin peeling?
