I've been dealing with cuts on my foreskin for about a week now, and they're just not healing no matter what I try. Ive used boroline, candid b, dermikem oc creams, and even took some antibiotics, but nothing's working. It's like they start to heal, but then when I pee or pull the skin back, it gets painful again. It's really embarrassing to think about going to a doctor for this. I did feel a bit of relief after using coconut oil to clean it. Can you suggest any good treatments or medicine to try?
