At the base of my penis shaft, I have dry skin that has cracked and is red. I applied aloe Vera because I don't have Neosporin, and it seems to close, but if I get erected or pull at the skin in anyway it opens back up. I do shave the shaft and balls, but never had this problem before. I have no other noticeable symptoms, but this is discomforting and I am curious if this is something I cam self treat or do I need to see a doctor? Again it is just on the top at the base and no where else.
