I have had an ongoing problem with a rash in my groin area for over a year now. I have been to see Dermatologists, Urologists, PA, pretty much everyone except a witch doctor. I first went to a local Planned Parenthood after a questionable hook up with a friend of my sisters a year ago when my scrotum became very sensitive, very red, and itchy. It later progressed to the head of my penis and was in the same condition very red and so sensitive the rub of my boxers was enough to make it hard to walk. I also noticed very small blister like bumps on the head of my penis which were hard to be seen unless erect. I had a full STD scan done and all came back negative except HSV 1, which was no surprise because I have had cold sores in the past. I then when to another clinic where the PA looked at me and without hesitation or the first test said it was a yeast infection and gave me a presciption of Dyflucan and Ketoconosoil . I used both meds to the doctors orders and no help if anything it got worse. I later went back to same doctor a month or so later and was given instead of the first one week Dyflucan, a 4 week prescription and Nystaten ointment and cream. No help! But at the same time of the visit to the PA I had been given a steroid pack for poison ivy that contracted between visits. I was later told by another PA that the steroids would do nothing but fuel the yeast infection. You can only imagine how stressed and frustrated I am now. I was however told to go to a dermatologist, so i did. And when i got there I paid $150 for him to tell me I sweat to much at work and to bring some dry clothes. I understand that I sweat in my work(carpenter) but not to the point of wringing my clothes out. He also gave me a prescription of Pramosome 1%. At this point 7 months after my first visit to Planned Parenthood the redness is not like it was in the begining but still there and now had this dull anoying pain in my testicles and the head of my penis which still had the same no worse blistery bumps. I also now have small hard flesh colored bumps mostly at the base of my penis but some scattered about. Some contain puss and will pop others just feel like small metal pellets. After some online research I can best describe them as sebacious promice not warts. Conserned about the first test missing something and about herpes I went back to planned parenthood for another test and same results. I must add that I have not had sexual relations of any kind the whole time this has been going on conserned I may have a STD even though everyone I had seen has said almost imediatly it is not a STD. Back the the dermatologist a third time in which I told him I wanted a biopsy and to tell him about the pain I was experiencing. The biopsy came back with very vague results of a type of eczema, contact dematitis, or allergic reaction to something. He gave me the same Pramasome only 2.5% and refered me to a Urologist who told me pretty much I was fine. I have in this time changed my soaps, detergents, lotions, fabrics, beds, and whatever else I thought would help many times and still no change. I have used every over the counter eczema and even psoriasis cream I came across and my skin feel and looks as abnormal as it has for over a year. Please help with anything you can, advise, meds, or any other suggestion that you can, thanks. Also I am sorry for the essay I just am frustrated and looking for some answers.
