my case is similar to the above, and i wanted to know will the wound heals automatically or it requires the dermatologists assistance. Suggest me the doctor is it urologist or dermatologists.
At least suggest me the ointment names and where to be applied.

Hi there!

Well, this sounds like an allergic inflammatory process over a primary infection. Though the inflammation would heal well on its own, you could try applying a 1% steroid ointment mixed with an anti-biotic to help with the process. It is also advised to see a primary care physician or a urologist for appropriate management of a possible genitor-urinary infection.
Hope this is helpful.

Take care!
