    Skin on tip of penis is red?
    The foreskin at the tip of my penis is red and very sensitive. I am uncircumsized and if you peel back the foreskin part of the head of my penis is also red and sensitive. It does not hurt to urinate, also it seems to me like smegma production has increased, as it seems like I am having to clean it very often. What are these symptoms of and should I see a doctor? This is a recent thing, and was not happening a week ago. I am 16.

    Well, smegma isn't such a bad thing, it keeps the uncircumcised penis lubricated, but in your case it sounds like you picked up a little bit of bad fungus along the way. Yeast infections in men are rare, but can happen too. I would suggest a trip to the doctor to see just what it is. There are over the counter meds that can help you, but we are not allowed to recommend, for multiple reasons.
