    Dave,

    We look alike. I have the exact same foreskin, and being fat makes it even harder to avoid urine scorching.

    i get this and Balanitis constantly. Clean and dry is the key, and deodorants in that area can be tricky.

    I've used TopCock gel, that dries to powder, and since the foreskin tip is a literal 'pain', the balanitis will show as red sore spots. My husband irrigates the head/glans with warm water when this occurs, and the telltale is burn like a sunnavabitch whenever peeing!

    Dave, the best medical professional for you to see would be a Dermatologist. The first photo you posted suggests you have incredibly dry skin, or potentially, you have a relatively severe skin condition - this often goes hand-in-hand with other skin issues elsewhere on the body?

    In terms of herpes, large %'s of the population are born carriers of either strain of herpes, as a carrier you can get outbreaks from time to time, just as you can around the mouth - however what you have pictured does not look like a herpes outbreak, it would be far worse than what you have.

    So, either see your Regular / Family Doctor / GP, go to any Walk-In Sexual Health Center, or if you are in the UK you can go to a GUM Clinic at your local General Hospital ....

    What product do you use on your penis? How many times a day do you wash your penis? It doesn't look like HSV. HSV is not as scary as you think. Go see a dermatologist. Don't be scared to show your penis to a doctor. I have seen many penis in my life.
