Discussing penis issues, as a warning!
Around 8 weeks ago I noticed a whiteish discolouration on my glans, kinda like eczema where the skin is still visible if that makes any sense.
I visited a sexual health clinic and it's been ruled out that it is nothing transmitted. They gave me a cream which is hydrocortisone 2% (Canesten) which I applied as prescribed for 7 days morning and night. After this time the issue went away and the Doctor said to keep the cream incase the "contact dermatitis" comes back. (Although he said he can't fully provide a diagnosis for me)
Fast forward to the past 2 weeks (4 weeks after stopping the cream as the issue cleared up) and now the problem is just as bad and also burns around the glans.
I'm planning on visiting my own Doctor who will no doubt tell me to apply another cream (which by the way will eventually thin the skin and could lead to other issues), so I'm doing a little research.
Could be UTI, diabetes,lichen or Balanitis. Google image search doesn't bring up any results that show what I have...
