It is just red there now. I feel really bad about it and would like it to grow back as quickly as possible. I use liquid soap as a lube and squeeze a little tight. What is causing my loss of skin, and how can I get it to grow back?
I'm not sure if this is the problem, but you shouldn't use liquid soap as a lubricant. It is too harsh on skin – especially if it contains an antibacterial ingredient. The skin on the penis is much thinner than on the hands, and the substance was not intended to be rubbed into the skin vigorously for a long period of time (obsessive-compulsive germophobes notwithstanding).
First, switch to a lubricant that isn't harsh – preferably a personal lubricant like K-Y Jelly. Apply either zinc oxide cream or an antibiotic first-aid ointment to the area several times a day. It may help if you abstain from masturbating for a while – or at least try to avoid rubbing that area. If the problem persists, you should probably consult a doctor.
Do you find yourself masturbating more often during some seasons than others? Why?
