staphylococcus haemolyticus infection

I have been noticing a mucus looking discharge from my penis, which looks milky in the morning, it also burns sometimes when i urinate and my penis tip and urethra itches. I did a slide and swab test of the discharge and it showed that i had a staphylococcus haemolyticus infection. I also did gonorrhea, chlamydia and HIV tests which came back negative. My doctor gave me one dose of Zitromax, in addition i had been taking Augmentin for about 6 days due to a sinus infection.

It has been about a week and a half later and my penis has started back itching at the tip and upper urethra, it also burns slightly now and again when i urinate. The discharge is no longer there.

I am worried, does this mean that the antibiotics did not cure the infection and it is re emerging??

Hi,

If you are in doubt that the antibiotics worked, it is best to go and see your doctor.

I had a staph infection in my left testicle in 2000 for which I received an emergency orchiectomy.

Don't wait this could become quite serious.

All the best
