check it here:


http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/penis-health/MY01461

Excerpts:

Inflammation of the head of the penis (balanitis) may cause pain and a foul discharge.

and an interesting treatment for another problem:

Regular use. Frequent sex or sexual activity may help you maintain erectile function.
