A member asked:

What treatment should be given to a peeled skin around the penis cap to heal fast?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Irritated Skin: If the skin is irritated then use Cortaid (hydrocortisone) or cortisone 10. If this is a yeast infection then use a topical medication to treat yeast. You have to know what you are treating.
