Ongoing Problem

I've had an ongoing problem with redness on the tip of my penis for quite some time.  I've been to several doctors, dermatologist, urologist, etc. and have not been able to pin down what the problem is.  Whenever I show them they don't see anything wrong or believe it's normal.  The redness is splotchy in nature and comes and goes. It's almost like there are little red dots underneath the skin There is also a burning sensation at the tip of my penis that is sporadic.  It does not normally happen when I urinate. For these reasons it does not appear to be an STD to them.  I've been tested for just about everything and all my results are negative.  It is most noticeable if I were to masturbate.  So it's not like I can really show them when I'm in for a visit.  I've even thought about bringing my digital camera so they can see, but didn't think that was appropriate either. I've already tried cortizone cream, taking saw palmetto, cran berry pills, etc.  I do not want to be subjected to evasive tests like a scope in my bladder when the problem is most likely not there.  I'm hoping that someone can make something of some pictures that I have taken.  

I sincerely hope someone can make something of these pics so that I can start to correct whatever undiscovered problem remains.

Hey,
I am experiancing pretty much the same thing. And like you I have tried everything from cortison,triamacin even droplets of GSE (which burned like hell. I am currently on another round of Dox and I only get red when its been manipulated or have had an erection for a while.See my post, I am not sure what it is, first thought it was yeast after three friggn gallons of yogurt and somekinda of yeast cream decided its not that. I have been checking lots of articals and the most likey cause is prostritus chronic prstritus. seems as though the urolgist and these med help docs are the same they talk once or twice and if you aint better they move on, so I will watch your post see if they help you and if they do it might help me. Hope things get better dude.
