dried my penis out... I'm in pain

I seemed to of wounded by self in a bad way though. I have been using "Arm and Hammer" baking soda as a deodorant for years and during the hot humidity I used it in my underwear. It worked great till it dried my penis out... I'm in pain. I won't go into details. Damn hippie solutions never work. Sure I smelled great, but now I have serious wounds.
