Pain on penis head, skin.
by Brian-Stephens, May 09, 1998 12:00AM
In short, one oral sex episode led to burning sensation
in genitals.Took medication for Gonnoreah and syphlis
excuse the spelling, Today, two months later, I check out ok at the doctor but I have some pain in the head of my penis and skin on the shaft. there is little to see with regard to anything wrong, but I notice the skin doesnt seem the same around the head of the penis. It looks more wrinkled when flaccid, and the skin more reddish like inflammed a bit below the head, that never went away.The doc said its ok, but I know better, and there is some pain, like a needle ***** every once in a while. I thought maybe it was soap that I used that was maybe filled with some type of cleaner like ammonia that I used after the episode, I'm not sure. Any ideas would help, I know it doesnt feel the same.

Dear Brian
Thanks for your questions. Unfortunately computers have not evolved enough for us to be able to examine and diagnose you via the internet. You tell us that there is little to see or feel wrong with the penis. There is however an abnormal sensation onthe head of the penis (glans penis) I am not sure if we could provide much of an answer given this scenario. You probably have irritated a nerve which is still unhappy. Time should help. I would pursue further medical follow-up namely a dermatologist if symptoms continue.
More individualized Dermatological and Urological care is available at the Henry Ford Hospital and its urban campuses by calling (1 800 653 6568). We can also arrange local accommodations through this number if this is your need. Please bring any physicians’ notes and lab test results that you may be able to obtain. These will help us greatly.
