Hello,
I have had the following problems after having unprotected sex with my girlfriend for the first time:
2 days later I had tingling sensations, red rash on scrotum, red patches of skin on penis head, slight clear discharge from base of penis,dampness in genital area, testicular discomfort/pain, mild urethritis, and burning sensations in testicles, wrestless sleep, and fevers...
I went to the Dermatologist...and he said it looked like Eczema and gave me some steroidal cream. This definetly aggrivated the area. I have tried anti-fungle creams, changing detergents, changing my underwear to silk boxers, and used baby powder - none of which had success with the rash or genital problems.
The baby powder helped the most and it keeps the area dry for a while but the rash won't go away. The scrotal sac doesn't like to hang loose...It is evident that my genital area doesn't look the way it used to...And that something is bothering it...I minimize touching down there and notice that when I don't touch down there for a while..in combination with using baby powder...sometimes the redness goes away but never completely...A couple of scratches can start the cycle over again...I always keep my hands clean and wash them before I go the bathroom. I also trim my nails pretty short...so it's no likely it's something under my nails.
I have been to my regular Dr numerous times and have been blood tested for HSV I+II, HIV, all negative & Clymydia and Gonorreah cultures were negative...She was tested for the basic STDs, HIV, Gonorreah, and Clymydia: all negative, and she had a visual screen for lesions, etc...again negative.
It's now been 4 months...We haven't had sex in 10 weeks...
I think this is worth mentioning that about 10 days after the incident, my eyes felt extremely irritated...and then had discharge...the eyelids are always red now and the steroidal cream the Dr gave for my eyes doesn't work. Also, I occasionally run a fever and my skin (arms...legs)feel like it's burning in certain areas. Also, my muscles twitch frequently...
I understand mental anxiety & worry can be a possible explanation. Aside from anxiety...Can you give me some other explanations to these problems and recommend some possible tests I could have done. I realize you might not have the answers, but I just want some direction.
Having been a rather healthy individual all my life, with running and not smoking, I know my body pretty well...and I feel it's reacting to something.
There are too many things that are physically different that don't add up to anxiety. Does it sound like something bacterial/viral...Can this be explained by any one thing?
I feel I have done a good job of not trying to think about the problems, and let it worry me, as I know that definetly can make it worse...but these physical abnormalities are really bothering me and they are not normal. Please help me get back to being me...Thank you!
