Hello Doctor,
I am experiencing a burning sensation on foreskin (on the right side, just below the penis head). It has been this way since last 4 weeks. The inflammation is mostly felt in the evenings. The pain feels like a rug burn or something. My penis is usually rested on the right side on the scrotum. Initially, I felt some moistness in that area because of contact. I also was wearing two pieces of underwear (briefs and boxers) for the cold season. There is no visible redness, definitely no sores or blisters of any kind, no discharge, although I smelled a slight foul odor on a couple of occasions (nothing very smelly). There is no burning when I urinate. I believe I have experienced this kind of burning / tingling sensation before mostly due to wetness from urine drops but it hasn’t lasted this long before.
I have tried antifungals like lotramin (OTC) and hydrocortisone 1% cream but it hasn’t worked. I have used a cream (nyastatin) given to me by my urologist for suspected case of balanitis (it really was a foreskin irritation due to harsh antibacterial soap). It subsides the burning but it hasn’t gone away completely.
It all started a day after I had an incident at a strip club. During one of the lapdances, the dancer unzipped my pants and adjusted the position of my penis. I was still wearing the two pieces of underwear but at some point, small portion of my penis head (just the tip) was peeping out from the elastic of my underwear. I don’t believe I had any skin to skin contact (I did not feel it). There were no vaginal fluids on my underwear nor did I had my precum on the underwear.
Could you please help me understand what this is? I really appreciate your time and help.
Thank you!
