Balanoposthitis: Balanoposthitis is most often caused by fungal infection, particularly in the uncircumcised. Condoms with spermacide may cause or aggravate this condition.

Balanoposthitis: I don't know which condom's to suggest but you may consider circumcision if this problem persists. See your doctor.
