Help heal cut on penis

I got into penis exercises a few months ago.  (Yes it seems to help).  But a little over a month ago I cut myself about an inch down on my shaft while 'shaving'.  Obviously the penis exercises irritate it, so i refrained from it and from 'sexuals' for the most part for about a MONTH.  I thought that would be enough time for it to heal.  Initially after the cut i put neosporin and a bandaid. Tried keeping it clean and tried applying the neosporin every so often and it seemed to close the cut pretty well. Well after the month I still had a 'white mark' (like a scar) where the cut was.  But i figured i should be pretty much be healed since a month passed already.  So i proceeded w/ the exercises.  The first time, no problem.  Next exercise a couple days later.  The skinned peeled and the cut reopened on the very same spot.  This worries me.  Time to leave it alone again but what can i do to speed up the healing and make the healing PERMANENT. I've heard Neosporin helps, I've also read that using soap for sensitive skin can help - some soaps might actually be doing damage??... Also heard just leave it alone, no medicine, just keep it dry and clean. Of course I'll quit the exercises permanently if i have to, but I would like to continue them in the heal-able future if I could.  Heal me fast and PERMANENT!  Please HELP!

I dealt with this problem for over a year, visited numerous websites and and eventually 2 doctors that prescribled me antibiotic for yeast infection that still didn't help. After numerous tries at home rememdies I finally found the cure.
After you shower spray Tinactin Jock Itch onto the affected area for about 3 days. Expect it to burn a bit for a few minutes but it'll cure what ails you.
Evidently it's a form of Jock itch, no more problems in the past 3 months

Hi Jay, the first thing to remember is that p***s skin is very thin and even though it looked heal it would still need more time, as pe exercises put a lot of strain on the skin of your shaft, so I would be thinking of 8 week break, then restart very slowly and lots of lube, as for skin vits E, A, K, C and brewers yeast for all the Bs, and try some Aloe Vera and some wheat gem oil mixed on the skin once you are healed againe, and after you exercises.
Good Luck
