oral sex and antibiotics

Woman gave me oral.  One month later, Dr. did blood and urine check for std's and all were negative.  

Should I check again for std's in the near future?

they all work fine. sometimes even just using the powder instead of the cream is helpful for sensitive skin too.

I'd try just a plain otc jock itch cream twice a day for a full week and see if that helps at all.

correct, the cream you were given did have a steroid in it which is often too irritating for some folks sensitive genital skin.

If I recall, the cream has a steroid in it.  I don't know what that means, but that is why I couldn't use it for very long.

No ma'am.  My urologist told me to stop at 10 days, the same time I stopped the Cipro in October.  Its called Nystatin and Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream.  I have put it on the site since then, and against doctors orders, and it seems to work soon after application.

Thank you, Grace.  

My urologist said it was fungus.  He prescribed me a topical anti-fungus, but it is still there 2.5 months later.

usually it's irritation or a fungal infection.

Thank you.  Any idea what redness of the penis means?  It feels like a slight warming of the whole penis with a slight tingling when I urinate.  After I urinate, it cools off and the redness goes away.  I acknowledge anxiety seems to make it worse.

you don't have to test for herpes from this. if you had contracted it, you would've had very obvious symptoms within 2-20 days post encounter.

discuss with your provider if it's worth testing for syphilis or not based on the incidence of it in your area.
