Q: why does my penis head peel sometimes? i do not masturbate , could it just be some friction?

: You need to see your dermatologist when your problem is active. It's not uncommon for psoriasis to involve the head of the penis. Another cause might be a contact allergy. Get evaluated and treated if necessary.
