“ Rough/Dry Sensitive Skin On Penis ”
I am wondering if I should get this checked out -- I am not sure if this is from masturbating too much, or if it is a fungal infection or STD. On the shaft of my penis near my glans, there is a circular patch of skin that is sensitive to the touch (uncomfortable for me to rub my fingers across it) and is rough/dry. It's less noticeable while I am flaccid, but is very apparent when my penis is erect. As ridiculously as this sounds, I am too embarrassed to go to my GP and ask, so I'm posting anonymously to the whole internet.
