Hi,
I am a 22 year old uncircumsized male. I had unprotected sex with a female who I did not know very well 19 days ago (Saturday). I felt some minor itching around the head of my penis and decided to go in for an STD urine test on the Wednesday. During the week while waiting for the test results to come back, I experienced slight burning while urination, a slight burning around the head of my penis after ejaculation, a red rash under the foreskin, slight itching on my scrotum and very itchy around my rectum. Eventually after about 5 days the burning subsided, but the itching persisted. I did not experience any fever or swollen glands during that time.
The test came back the following Friday as negative for Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. I told the GP about the symptoms I'd had over the past week and he subscribed Lamisil Cream with 1% terbinafine HCl. Saying that it sounded like a yeast infection.
Upon examining myself and doing some research online, it appears as though I have some Fordyce spots on under my foreskin in various patches (white, small raised bumps, that are not painful/itchy). But I did not notice them before, I know I might have always had them, Also, either the growth or presence of more sebaceous glands on the shaft of my penis are more prominent now than before. Could these, along with the Fordyce spots be a sign of something or a mere coincidence?
I am still concerned about herpes. Coming from Canada, I have read there is no Herpeselect test here. And I have also read that some people carry it without experiencing any symptoms. Also, are lesions extremely painful, or is it just the visual presence that are a sign of herpes?
Also, given the time that has elapsed (19 days), is it possible that I may still have a herpes outbreak? I have read that sometimes yeast infections are caused by an STD
If I do not have one, is it possible for me to somehow diagnose that I do have it?
I am asking this because I am concerned about inadvertently passing it on to a partner of mine in the future without ever knowing I had it, and I would hate to have that on my conscience when something could have been done about it.
Thank you
