Burning in the penis...ouch

by scooooter60, Nov 06, 2009 03:30PM

I had protected sex with a prostitute. For a couple days i had terrible inching around my penis. Thinking I got crabs i used shampoo and with in days the itching was gone. I do continue to have burning in my penis. It has been two months since the encounter. What do you think the burning is? Thank you

You should see a doctor about the burning. Though condoms offer very significant protection against std's, they are not 100%. And so you know, shampoo does not get rid of crabs. You need a medicated shampoo specific to pubic lice.
