Help! Red smooth itchy patches under the glans of Penis
Hello community!
This all started about a month ago (July 26). Two days after having mutual oral with an uncircumcised male in Paris. I am circumcised.
Right after the tip of my penis was sore. So I laid in bed and kept putting lotion on it. After it would absorb I would add and rub in a little more. Just trying to moisturize it.
A couple days after I starrted feeling a burning/ tingling especially on the tip but also generally throughout the groin. My lips were also feeling dry and tingly and I may have had a sore throat.
I went to the doctor after I returned to he states. They looked at my penis, took urine samples and swabbed my throat for strep. They gave me 1g of azithromycin and a shot of cetrifaxon prophylacticly. Also a single tablet of diflucan. Thinking I was going to start to feel better and possibly it was just a fungal or yeast thing, I started spraying tolfnaate onto my penis and groin and gold Bond medical powder all over thighs and penis. That lasted about a week.
After this I started noticing a few flat shiny red spots just under the glans of my penis One ran along the underside of the glans where it meets the skin for about 5 mm. Almost like abrasions or friction where the skin looks rubbed off or thin. I thought well maybe that is fungus again. So I got some miconazale nitrate cream and powder. Started putting that down there for a few days. I also would put calahist lotion on the tip occasionally along with the powder which seemed to protect and dry the skin out to heal.
I stopped putting anything on for a couple days trying to keep t dry and occasionally put unscented lotion to help the skin heal.
Then I started to see those red spots in the same pot coming back. Like I said some of this is over reacting trying to treat this and get it resolved.
Any advice, thoughts. I am trying to get a dermatologist appt but everyone is saying they are booking 2-3 weeks out. I really don't want to wait that long.
