possible std?
Posted in the dermatology section but the more help I think I get the better.
Anyway here goes. Had sexual contact twice 5 months ago, protected vaginal, unprotected oral. Few weeks (about 6-8) later foreskin got dry and cracked and had small tears in them, foreskin felt tight and penis head itched slightly. GP diagnosed posthitis and put me on steriodal cream called kenacomb. One single red spot appeared at top of glans before use of cream then disappeared. Missed 2 days use of cream and masturbated. Spot returned in exact same spot and 4 new spots also showed up on glans. Had HIV test done 3 months after exposure and herpes done 4 months after exposure. Both negative. Went back to GP, he put me on cipro for 2 weeks. Currently on 2nd weeks treatment.
These spots are bright red, not raised (don't feel bumpy if I rub glans), haven't had anything ooze from them, don't itch nor burn. I pee fine without burning and ejaculate fine too. Worried may be STD or some kind of skin problem. I've never had bright red spots on my glans before.
Went to a 2nd doc, prescribed antifungal cream and that was pretty much it.
Can anyone advise on what could be causing these bright red spots? Or what course of action to take

Thanks for the reply Vance. Would you recommend me going for vdrl, hep b and chlamydia tests?
