Pulled back — living with a bare head

The first exposed glans was my own while I was still 5 or 6 y/o. I think first it was by accident while playing with my penis and later on (7-8 y/o) I always exposed my glans when peeing and showering.

Hi nowadays I enjoy retracting foreskins, but still my foreskins covers my glans easily when i'm flaccid.
But the question is, as my glans is super sensitive, even few strokes with hands or licks from blowjob makes me difficult to hold the cum. (Less than a minute )
So I really want to make it desensitize. Can you give me some tips for desensitizing my glans?

I like masturbation both ways depending on my mood. Sex is similar keep totally back is nice and provide her with extra friction that she says she likes other times the feeling of the natural glide is nice too.

+1 what Stephen is saying: don't overdose on medicine and stop using the snake oil called colloidal silver.

You really dug up every possible post to write this into them?

Thanks for replying. I know you are right about the doctors. I am very much hoping it has sorted itself out next week but otherwise I am going to bite the bullet.

I did have a go at pulling back earlier and it was actually fine once back.

Yeah I did read about the steroids and thought I would steer clear. Perhaps sudocrem wasn't my smartest move either, I might wash it off.

I'll Google Balanoposthitis

Disclaimer: not a medical professional

Balanitis can have different causes like bacterial/fungal/viral infection, irritation or autoimmune.

The smart option will be to reach for a medical help.

The unsafe option will be to try and treat it yourself. If you plan to do anything yourself( without doctor help) never start with corticosteroids (for autoimmune diseases). If you are wrong corticosteroids will make bacterial/fungal infections worse.

Clean it with plain water and try to limit exposure to chemicals in soaps/gels. Wash with water leftovers from pee if possible.

I think when the condition affects both the head and the foreskin that its called "Balanoposthitis". Search stuff about it, there might be more specific information for your case

You should go and introduce yourself in order to be able to see the pictures. There are two pictures of this method on the original post.

I just had another look at your photos. I think the rash fits the profile for Zoon's Balanitis, but it'd have to be a very mild form. The photos I've been able to find online of Zoon's are all pretty horrific, but the description from DermNet is 'symmetric "cayenne pepper spots" and orange-glazed erythema on the glans penis due to microvascular haemorrhage and hemosiderin deposition.'

It's also very possible this is some sort of dermatitis caused by, as you say, all of the chemicals you've been throwing at it. The foreskin and glans are both very thin mucosal membranes and they don't take kindly to heavy chemicals (as you've found with the coloidal silver). Note that according to Healthline:

'... colloidal silver has been declared unsafe by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) since 1999. In fact, the FDA deemed that all over-the-counter products that contain colloidal silver ingredients or silver salts are not generally recognized as safe or effective'

My mum used to use colloidal silver to (supposedly) treat psoriasis and she tried to convince me to use it. I opted not to and I'm glad I did: there are much better and safer treatments available. Note that it can turn your skin blue as well, although I think that might be only if it's taken orally. There's a famous case of a guy who pretty much turned himself into a smurf using colloidal silver.

I stopped using my canesten on Sunday and have had persistent itching since and a small amount of peeling skin, but I can't see any clear indications that the infection is back. Apparently using antifungals can lead to soreness and itching if they're used for a "long" time (I couldn't find a definition for "long" in this context, beyond "the recommended treatment time on the packaging") so I'm working on the assumption that I'm probably clear now but simply suffering a side effect of the Clotrimazole. It usually takes a week or so for the skin to settle afterwards so I'm hoping for some relief this week.

And, like you, I've also not been skinning back for the last week for fear that may have been causing additional irritation. Here's hoping I can resume again soon.

If I were you I'd do as you were doing: use the oral antifungal, keep it clean and dry, and avoid irritants. I'd also suggest maybe considering using a small amount of a gentle emollient moisturiser like E45 or Epaderm. And if you're not already doing so, try adding an iron supplement into your diet: a low iron count can lead to fungal infections.
