Non-Itchy, Dry Patch of Skin on Penis, possibilities?

[Dready]

What led up to the patch...

-Ex-girlfriend and I had unprotected sex
-She called one day while away from me and said she found out she had clamidia and I should get tested
-Went to the doctor to get tested, they said I probably had it and gave me azithromycin.
-She also took it, waited a week and some change before any sex
-Found two cuts on my penis
-The skin heals back but it's lighter than surrounding skin, but did start to darken
-That same patch of skin becomes dry, and has remained.
-Use lotion and shea butter, but effects are only temporary, dry skin always returns, but has subsided
-The patch of skin was at one time rougher than what it is now

Used no type of medicated/anti-fungal creams/lotions yet, was about to head to Wal-Mart right now haha, but found this.

My question, can anyone diagnose this, can it be treated with stuff from Wal-Mart, or do I gotta go see the doc?  
Was warned that those with Clamidia can have other stuff.  But Clamidia was all she told me about, and all her docs told her about.  All help is appreciated, and if more info needed ask, I'll tell ya if I know.

Hi, Im a 46 year old male and 2 weeks ago i started to notice the same thing.  Just like Dready, I don't have an itch and its not herpes, It softens up after shower but gets hard and scaly hours later.  as I looked back 2 weeks to see what I did different the only thing I come up with is that I started using (now I dont) a new shower wash and started getting very Itchy armpits and groin to go along with dry patch.  Dr. gave me the same... cortisone & steroids but NO change, still have dry itchy pits, still have dry scaly patch that bleeds when I remove some of the scaliness. NO STD... so whats going on?

Hi,

It could be eczema, sweat dermatitis, allergic reactions or eczema.

You need to wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites.

Apply calamine lotion at the site of the lesions and see if it helps. You could take some oral antihistamine medications like cetrizine or loratadine. You need to maintain a good personal hygiene .

Anti-itch drugs, often antihistamine, may reduce the itch during a flare up of eczema, and the reduced scratching in turn reduces damage and irritation to the skin.

For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone or desonide), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide).

Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Moisturizing is one of the most important self-care treatments for sufferers of eczema. Keeping the affected area moistened can promote skin healing and relief of symptoms.

It would be advisable to consult a skin specialist for your symptoms and a proper clinical examination.
