    I have something similar, over a year ago I went to my gp thinking it was balanitis but he just said it was probably just ppp and wasn't concerned . Just guessing it's something you have to live with. Ive read a lot of comments about how your penis head is sensitive to shower gels etc and there was a period just b4 I noticed mine that I was meeting a girl for sex and afterwards I'd have a quick wash in the sink with shower gel or even scented hand wash. If you do find out what it is and how to get rid please reply.
