> I heard somewhere about BXO (balanitis xerotica obliterans).

You have probably read too much for your own good. The first and most important thing about BXO is that it is rare. May I repeat that: Rare! This means that if you have any problem with your penis at all, it is 98% certain it is not BXO.

> My penis is not white, not stiff, not thick and I have no inflammation or scar.

So why ask?

> Do you think I have BXO? What are the symptoms.

I give you minimum 98% chance you do not have BXO. Why ask?

You give us some symptoms, and it might be worth talking about!
