    I'm not sure what that is (maybe balanitis or lichen sclerosus), but you need to see a doctor.

    You could either see your GP, or if you're in the UK, you could go to a genitourinary medicine (GUM) clinic - google "GUM clinic near me" for details.

    If you could update this thread and tell us what the doctors say, it would be appreciated.  Good luck.

    Did you ever find out what the cause of the skin changes were? Much appreciated.
