ok good news, I have been to the doc. several times been tested for everything and all came back neg. went to derm. and they said nothing to worry about. but something is causeing inflamation could be soap ext. my guess on what happened is I had an yeast infection got rid of it but with all the home remedies I was useing it caused a rash of its own. I stopped home remedies little over a week ago and its gotten better. guess I'll see in time thanks again for helping me when I was freaking out.
was your rash on the head of your penis as well as your scrotum
Not with a dermatologist just with my regular doctor. I have been to the doctor four times now. so far the doc. still says a fungal so I'm on a antifungal pill which its day five and nothing. its weird though one day one side seem to get better and the next its back. yep I'm stumped.
yes indeed it can be hard to get rid of a fungal infection.
have you been following up with a dermatologist?
I ve been having a similar problem. I have a rash at the base of my penis. I used most of the over the counter jock itch drugs and honestly anything that had miconazole nitrate as an active ingredient worked well. I still have the rash but it slowly fades. The best drug so far is the vaginal (!) yeast infection one (Monistat). Itching is almost gone as well and it's only the second day I used it.
Hi grace
Its me again, I have been to the doc a few times now over my rash. I've gotten nystatin with a steriod ointment, it seemed to work for a few days then the rash comes back. The rash just won't go away! One day it looks better then the next right back. I have tryed putting on baby powder along with it to keep it dry and nothing. Do you have any idea's? can a yeast infection be this hard to get rid of? could it possibly be something else?
sometimes it takes longer than week for the rash to go away too. i f the rash isn't gone in another week, return to be seen again.
alrighty I'm back once again. It's been a week now since I've been putting on the nystatin cream. the itch has pretty well gone away, but I still have the rash. should have the rash gone away by now?
glad you got answers and treatment :)
I seen the doctor and it is a yeast infection thank you for your help
you need to be seen monday for a proper exam.
this doesn't sound like herpes at all.
No I haven't seen anyone yet. seems like the rash is spreding to inner thighs and upper part of the base of penis or lower part of stomach. does it sound like jock itch?
I missed a little from my last post. but I'm confused about discharge after I get done urinateing it feels like I'm not all the way done which causeing more frequent bathroom breaks and keep getting clear dribble afterwards, after I masturbate it seems to be worse. I've checked it over and over it appears to me to be urine but not sure. If I had something like clyamidia would it cause a rash?
My main consern is herpes, its been a couple weeks and haven't seen anything except for a slight rash on head of penis. is there a chance that it may be herpes?
Sorry for all the questions I'm just fishing for insight untill I get a chance to make it to the doctor.
thanks again for all your help
this sounds like a fungal infection more than a std. have you seen your provider yet for a proper exam?
