A member asked:

Keep getting redness and swelling on foreskin and tip of penis that comes and goes! what could this be? and is it serious?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Balanoposthitis: Balanoposthitis is the inflammatory condition you have described. It can be caused by untreated fungal/monilial infections. Topical anti-fungal creams may help. Circumcision may also be a direct way to eliminate this infection cycle involving the foreskin. Seek an opinion and examination with your urologist to determine the best course of action.
