Get evaluated.: Skin lesions of the penis and foreskin should be evaluated to just make sure it is not an infection or cancer. A physician will perform a medical and sexual history and a physical exam, and based on its appearance and the diagnosis, prescribe a cream or ointment, or recommend a biopsy if indicated.
