Is it normal for the skin on the penis to become irritated during masturbation?

Yes, you can apply sweet almond essential oil to the irritated skin on the penis. However, it is also important to moisturize the area regularly with a fragrance-free cream or lotion, and to use a gentle, fragrance-free soap when cleaning the area. Avoid using hot water and vigorous rubbing when drying the skin. It may also help to use a personal lubricant during masturbation to reduce friction and irritation.
