Penis rash

by kotton, Jun 21, 2006 12:00AM
I have noticed that after having sex using a condom usually in three days my penis will get slightly red. It will have tiny little red spots that sometimes show some blood when wiped with tissue. An antibotic cream will take care of it. Could it be the condom?

You may have a sensitivity to latex. I don't know much about what other types are available, but there is probably a non-latex that is just as effective it it's made of he same stuff as latex free surgical gloves.

might be the spermaside that they almost always put in the condom, i would try some without that first to see if its that before buying expencive hard to find alternatives to latex condoms

Hi,

You are suffering from allergy to the latex . It would be best to avoid use of latex and use non latex products and also carry an antihistamine or antiallergic medication handy in case of a sudden allergic reaction.

Consult your doctor whether you need to carry an epi-pen or not.

Let us know if you have any other doubts and post us on how you are doing.

Regards.
