Penile discharge/taut foreskin
About 6 months ago I went my doctor about a yellow discharge from under my foreskin. He prescribed a cream and explained that it was a problem of not washing the underside of the foreskin. I had problems with mine being taut and hard to pull back. Since then the problem has reoccured twice but has gone away after a day or two. My doc didnt reccommend an STD test. the problem has occured again today and i am concerned that it could be an infected or possible std... any advice?
Agree with above...definitely sounds like a fungal infection, not that uncommon in uncircumcised men. I am sure your Dr gave you an anti-fungal, which is the appropriate response.
I will say this, while I don't think what you describe is a STD, it's never a bad idea to get tested to know your status. Many things can be asymptomatic.

Why not just get tested if that's your concern? Its a possibility, but its also possible its a fungal infection from not being able to clean it was well as you should.
