Reddish swelling itch on penile shaft
Hi Dr,
I had unprotected sex 3 yrs ago in 2011. Around a year later 2012 I start to have an itch on my penis shaft (foreskin), the itch was quite bad then after some scratching it will swell and crack with some yellowish liquid coming out and it sticks to my underwear. I didnt have any fevers or any other symptoms.
Currently, I have some itch on my scrotum and anus area and the usual eczema places (Back of knee cap, hands, feet). The itch areas on my scrotum and anus has no bumps... its just itch.
I have Eczema 10 years ago and I still have it. Currently, I still have multiple itchy events throughout the year and I've been applying Betasone Cream on the areas and it will usually subside very quickly in a few hours after I apply the cream. After it subsides, it just a little bit reddish, with no open wounds or anything else.
Kindly advice pls. Thank you.

But I've read that Herpes condition can be delayed for years?
1. Could also have been recurring symptoms?
2. Why is it unlikely to be any issue? My first itch on the foreskin started 9 mths after that unprotected sex.
3. If it is Herpes, how long does the itchy sores (swollen area) last?
4. Is it possible that Betasone can help the Herpes sores? (bcos it works for my case)
5. If it is Belanitis, how long does the itchy sores (swollen area) last? My itch usually stops and swelling reduces in the same day i apply Betasone.

I would like to add that the swelled up area does not look like blisters or anything with liquid inside. It just puffy, extremely itchy and when it recovers its exactly the way it is probably just a little reddish.
Can I if its Herpes? Does my Betasone cream help to ease herpes symptoms?
Would appreciate if someone can help me pls!
