    Hi pete,

    1. What have you been washing your genitalia with? It could be from excessive washing or a strong soap/shower gel that has washed off the natural oil produced by your skin.
    2. Do you suffer from any skin conditions elsewhere, including dry skin? Sometimes skin conditions can manifest on the genitalia, including eczema, psoriasis, etc.

    I'd suggest moisturising the skin after you wash (Aveeno, Diprobase, E45 etc) and using a non-perfumed moisturising soap like Oilatum to wash the penis.

    Rgds,

    Adhari
