    Peeling on the glans requires clear cause and targeted treatment, which may be caused by friction from clothing, folliculitis, allergic dermatitis, etc.

    1. Clothing friction

    Peeling of the glans penis may be caused by repeated friction with clothes, causing skin damage. The friction needs to be reduced and it will gradually recover.

    2. Folliculitis

    If the hair follicles on the glans have infectious inflammation, they may cause congestion and peeling of the hair follicles. You can cooperate with your doctor to use erythromycin ointment, tacrolimus ointment, calamine lotion and other drugs for treatment.

    3. Atopic dermatitis

    If allergic dermatitis occurs on the glans skin, it will usually lead to dry and peeling skin. You can cooperate with your doctor to treat it with drugs such as loratadine dispersible tablets, cetirizine hydrochloride tablets, and diphenhydramine hydrochloride tablets.

    In addition to the above reasons, it may also be due to eczema, pearl rash, etc., which requires timely medical treatment.
