Itchy Penis Whilst on Keflex?

Hi, i started my a dose of Keflex last week, and a couple of days into it, my penis started to really itch, on the underside of the head of the penis, and now also seems red and puffy.
I did have unprotected sex about a week before i started the medication, and was wondering if it could be side effects to the Keflex, Or if i have caught a STD?
thanks

hey. well i finished my course of keflex a few weeks ago now, and the itchynes ect went down within 3-4 days of coming off of the tablets, so im guessing it was just a reaction from those. so dont worry, when you come off them it should go down

there one hell of a medication ! gave me a right fright haha
