balanitis

[duncan154]

The other day i had an unprotected sexual encounter. Since then my foreskin has become inflamed and uncomfortable but this is the only symptom. I think it is balanitis but I am not sure. Could someone help please.

I have had a tingling burning sensation on my penis for about 9 weeks my GP thinks its balanitis but it doesn't seem to want to go, i have std tests which came back negative!not painful just annoying really, I have tried canesten cream and the pill form but nothing helps!going crazy!

had protected sex on holiday with maybe 2 mins of unprotected...so im worried!

any ideas?

Does not sound like an STD. Could be nonspecific balanitis caused by overgrowth of bacteria in the foreskin or yeast (perhaps acquired from your partner). Balanitis is common in uncircumsized men.

See a doctor for a proper diagnosis.
