Is this yeast infection?

I wanted to know if this could possibly be a yeast infection?My situation was i had unprotected sexual contact.Both oral and intercourse on Dec 17th.I started to experience pain/tingling in my penis,especially the tip and was suffering from what i thought was chapped lips.This has progressed to pain/buring in several other regions.My nostrils,the corners of my eyes,my armpits and the area of the groin where my underwear is rubbing.I have not seen or felt any bumps/lesions anywhere.I went to the doctor and he took a urine sample and a swab.Is there a specific test he could take to check if it is a yeast infection?Is there something i could/should do at home to remedy this?

I think I got the same thing.  I have been washing fanatically and applying Jock itch cream.  With me the corners of my eyes and mouth is from touching them

I'd see a doctor before treating it.

And yeast is fungus.

could it be a fungus?  if it is then antifungal cream over the counter should clear it up. If not then you may need to see a dermotologist.There are so many diseases these days u have to be so careful.Good Luck

I'd still post this in the derm forum here.  Its not an std - no std would give you symptoms in so many spots on your body.  I'd think allergy or something way before an std.

There really is no spots.More of irritation and burning sensation.At the time of the visit i wasn't experiencing the pain i am now,in the other locations.So i just put the lip burning to a case of chapped lips.

Did he do a culture on any of the spots?

It doesn't sound like yeast, or an std.  You should try posting in the dermatology forum.
