staph aureus

[juliancho]

im 18 years old, 5'7", 156 pounds, i had unprotected sex with a woman and got staph aureus. i went to a private clinic that isnt very expensive because i dont have a medical insurance. i have no clinical record, allergies or anything, im an athlete for my college. in the clinic i got laboratories for STDS for about $500, and the results showed staph aureus. ive been taking ciprofloxacinfor more than 3 weeks, and the doctor from the clinic isnt an specialist so he doesnt really know whats going on and what to really do. the infection should be out of my body already, but today in the morning i noticed that the head of my penis is wrinkled as when u're in the pool for too long and you finger tips get wrinkled, also, it has a kind of discoloration, and well the color of it isnt the same as before, its red as if it was irritated. what does all this mean, in what stage of the infection am i in or what is going on?

yes doc. I had similar experience. tips of my penis I mean the hole that serve as an outlet for urine nw shrinks . I am dark in completion but since after staph contsmination 5 yrs bk. my cap has been a little bit golden . I hadly see morning erection and I tried sex premature ejaculation and weak erection becomes the order of the day. if I get thin then multiple syndrome such as runnin stomach,diarrhea,headached etc arises. but provided dat am fat nothing happens. u said something about fungal growth., can it be a fungus thaf is causin these problems. cos isolates from culture says staph and daf it grows very fast. how can dey conduct fungal test.

antibiotics kill off the "good" protective bacteria in your body as well as the "bad" bacteria that they are supposed to treat. It allows for the normal yeast/fungus on our bodies to over grow and cause us issues.

Thank u so much grace! It makes sense but why does being on antibiotics cause fungus? And yeah imma go to the doctor to check the process to follow:/

odds are you've now gotten a fungal infection from being on antibiotics :(  I encourage you to follow up monday with your regular provider for all of this.

I got tested about a week or two after the encounter with a cultive and a blood test, and the results were that I had a heavy growth of staph aureus. It might seem like I'm blowin this out of proportion but the thing is that this wrinkleness is way too abnormal it gets as if my penis head was gonna break into little pieces and also gets a shiny/yellowish/redish color... Sorry for being so persistent with this but I'm really worried:/

[gracefromHHP]

also how long after the encounter did you have all your testing done?

[gracefromHHP]

staph aureus is actually normal bacteria that is on our skin at all times. if you had staph in an urine test, odds are it was contamination. typically we don't even treat it.

this is normal what is going on with your penis. odds are you just paying far too much attention to the lil guy and need to find a new hobby :)

can anybody give an explanation to what i have, the thing is that my penis head never was like this either with the infection or before that? is it some kind of healing process or something???

[juliancho]

so it doesnt have anything to do with the staph aureus i was diagnosed?

Hello

A wrinkly penis isn't something to be alarmed about.   That condition is NOT STD related.  Usually my penis gets wrinkly when not erect.   Only thing I can think of is your anxiety is blowing this out of proportion.
