A member asked:
Ive had eczema/balanitis on my penis for the last 5 weeks (i got circumcised for this issue years 3 ago but it returned for the 1st time). should i visit a urologist or dermatologist for the issue? or both?

The doctor you like better!! Urologist as he has helped you in the past. Also cause may not be as superficial as skin only, hence also urologist. Hope it cleared few questions.
