On the 11/Sep/09 I was prescribed Ciprofloxacin for another infection (urine analysis showed bacteria), during which I developed what seemed like slight thrush on the middle of my tongue (still have it, didn’t get any worst).
Around the 15/Sep/08 I developed what seemed like another yeast infection (irritated by masturbation, the last time I had anything sexual to date.) around the edge of my penis’s head and edge of foreskin, on the 18/09/08 took another tablet of fluconazole 150 and started using the Lotrisone cream again for around a couple of weeks (calmed it but didn’t cure it)
On the 23/Sep/08 I noticed what seemed like the beginning of an outbreak of HSV (previous one being almost two years ago) on my penis, took Valtrex for three days, went away in about ten days.
On 02/October/08 after stopping the Lotrisone cream for a day, I noticed what seemed like white creamy discharge on the inner foreskin and redness around the edges of the glans, I used the Lotrisone cream and it immediately calmed it down.
On 07/October/08 saw another GP, was advised to switch from Lotrisone to Pevaril cream twice a day for 13 days, it calmed the irritation well.
Strangely my penis head’s color looked more normal a couple of days after stopping the Pevaril cream than while I was using the cream.
Then on the 29/October/08 I felt slight tingling/itching around the edges of the glans of my penis it seemed redder in color, flaky and very irritated with little cuts like around the edges, I had to restart Pevaril just to stop the irritation.
Characteristics:
1) The only affected area is around and behind edges of glans and edge of foreskin
2) There is no smell from affected area, when dry & if rubbed it can produce dry white stuff.
3) When irritated the glans edges can get swollen
4) The effected area is always marked by the outline of the covering foreskin (redness).
5) No internal discharge
6) No burning sensation during urination.
7) The tip of the glans seems unaffected, as the foreskin never reaches it.
8) There is no itching or discomfort once the cream is applied.
Is this a Yeast Infection, if not what could it be please?
Why isn’t it going away?
