If your foreskin is tight and difficult to retract, a steroid cream may help. Topical steroid creams, like those containing betamethasone, hydrocortisone, or triamcinolone, can reduce inflammation and loosen the foreskin. Applying the cream regularly as directed by a doctor, along with gentle stretching exercises, can improve retraction

Question

I'm really worried about some issues I've been having recently. About a month and a half ago, I noticed my penis was itching and there was redness, a rash, and accumulated smegma. I'm uncircumcised and after searching online, I thought it might be balanitis. I've been applying coconut oil daily on my foreskin for over a month now, and while the rash, redness, and itchiness have gone, I've still got some cracks and cuts on the tip of my foreskin. I wash it daily, but for the past two weeks, there's been dry skin forming around the foreskin every day, even though I clean it regularly. On top of that, I recently had a really hard stool and now my anus is itchy and swollen. I used coconut oil for the itch, which helped, but the swelling is still there. I'm not sure what's going on with my penis and anus. Should I be washing off this dry skin that forms daily? Also, which type of doctor should I consult for these issues? Are there any home remedies you can suggest to help with these cuts and cracks? I'm really concerned and would appreciate any advice.
