Glans problem - Sexual Health - Men Message Board

Hi there. I've got a bit of a problem with my glans. Around the opening of the penis it appears as if the skin has become irritated, it gives the impression as if a top layer has become rubbed off. It has been like this for a while now, definitely over 18 months, I haven't really thought of it much a problem because I haven't experienced any other problems or symptoms. No burning when I pee, no itching, nothing. However, there was a period when I used to indulge in a lot of sexual activity (including masterbating) without using a lube, and that i would sort of leak afterward for a while (i wonder if this has anything to do with it). Am i right in assuming that it is sort of irritation?
Thanks

This sounds like the same kind of problem that I am having. My penis tip is inflammed and irritated. I have been tested for every std, even though I knew that it wasn't one. I think it might just be a real bad irritation from rubbing on clothing or soap. Check out my post on harsh soap causing irritation.
