Dry glans after using lotion - Men's Health Message Board

I used lotion and forgot about it. When I bathed about a day later, the lotion was hardened on and it would not come off with just water. I had to use soap to get it off.

Anyways, its been two days and there has been no change. The glans are still white/paler than normal and the glans are still dry. The foreskin kind of peels off my glans, rather than sliding off. I haven't had sex yet, so I know its not any type of STD.

Does anybody know what this is and how I can fix it?

Try washing it with vinegar. The slightly acidic vinegar should clean it off. If it doesn't then just wait and eventually it will wear off on its own. Don't worry about it.

Problem solved. No damage was caused after all, I just needed to wash some more.
