Skin Irritation on Glans of Penis (around the Sulcus)
by peaceB, Feb 07, 2009 04:01PM
For the past 3 months, I have had a skin irritation with the glans part of my that revolves around the sulcus portion of the head. Depending on how irritated the area is, it will change from a red color (irritated) to purple. It does not itch, but is easily irritated by my underwear. I does not have any odor or discharge.
I have tried boxers and brief and both irritate the head.
I saw my GP a month ago and we originally thought it was jock itch and put anti-fungal cream (Clotrimazole & Betamethasone) and a oral pill (Flucanazole) for 1 month, but it had not affect. I have also tried Hydrocortizone 1% for a few weeks.
I am married and have only been with my wife sexually for over 12 years. My GP did not think it was a STD or cancer. His assessment was Lichen Planus.
Any advise or help is appreciated. It is impacting my sex life and causing irritation throughout the day at work.
