I have noticed a colour change around and on my frenulum in the past week. It doesn't really hurt or anything maybe a little burning here or there but nothing to complain about. Any ideas from the photos? Haven't been to the doctor yet, as i thought it would have cleared up on its own by now

    I have recently noticed a colour change on my foreskin. When it's completely dry, a thin film-like plastic forms on it. I am experiencing no pain. I am 21 and uncircumcised. Wanted to know if you are having similar symptoms.

      I believe what you are experiencing is the mucosa drying out and dying. Does it look like flakes of skin?

      Flakes of skin appear only when it is completely dry. It is very thin though. Don't know how to post a picture.

      This is Tom58099's post. I suggest you start your own. To upload photos, you need to use a computer.

    Dont use soap on your penis, it can cause some irritation. I see nothing from the photos but it wouldnt hurt to see a doctor about it.

    Best to have your doctor check you out - or go to a G U M clinic.
