Split skin in awkward places

[Wheatley]

Hey,

So I've been having a problem recently where I get a really sharp pain when I try to move my foreskin back (even just a little). This has been going on for about 1 - 2 weeks now and starting yesterday I decided that I'd just moisturize the area in the hope that something would free up.

I got really scared because I had some kind of surgery when I was really young in order to help me pull it back (a cut took place - not sure what though - I'm not circumcised). I was worried that whatever the surgery cut may have grown back.

On another attempt today, I saw a few little slits in the skin. The pain is so intense that I can't pin point the exact area. But it makes sense to assume that the pain originates from those slits. I can see red (maybe blood or just raw-er skin - but it doesn't actively bleed), but I could only manage to look a second (if that) as it hurts to expose it.

This sounds like such a simple thing "oh its just a cut, it'll heal". But this has major implications, such as improper cleaning. Since I've been unable to for a week or so now, its worrying me. Should I keep up the moisturizer or is this more damaging - and, can anyone suggest anything to help it?

Thanks

If there is some sort of an open cut potentially, I wouldn't keep putting moisturizer on it. If it's as painful as you say it is and you think it might be related to something when you were young, I'll just be the first one to say it: go see a doctor.

I can't really give you much advice 'cause... well, I don't come with those parts included. But if it were me and anything was going on like that, I'd be making a doctor's appointment so fast my own head would spin.

If it hasn't gone away in a week, I think you're well past due making that call.
