All,
I shaved the base of my penis shaft a month ago and have consistently had low level razor burn since then. I did have protected oral receptive sex, but it is unlikely this is an STD. It is irritation at the area shaved ONLY and on existing fordyce spots I have had forever.
While it is possible this is Molluscum contagiosum (but the bumps are simply the existing fordyce spots I've always had), herpes (unlikely as there are NO visible herpes lesions, and even then the itching would go way after a while), or syphilis (again NO visible lesions, just the original fordyce spots).
It is likely skin irritation (folliculitis?) from the shaving. Since it has been consistent for quite a while.
1. Is this folliculitis?
2. What is the next step? Do I visit a dermotogist? Will a GPractioner be able to help?
3. Is there an over the counter solution?
