Q:
I am 15 and I have a small, reddish tear on my penis glands. It stings a little and feels like it’s raw. I think I may have been masturbating the wrong way. How can I treat this? Will it go away?
   
A:
We have heard of too hard or too often, but not wrong. Your penis is probably raw.

For now put some topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin on the raw area two or three times daily. Give it a rest. Next time use some KY for lubrication.
