hi everyone. little backstory. about a month ago I started noticing some irritation/redness around my foreskin with small little micro cuts that were especially sensitive when I would retract my foreksin. i originally had attributed to friction/masturbation. I had done some research and posthitis was consistant with the symptoms. I eased off of the masturbation/sex and symptoms improved. I had even used a anti fungal with relief, however I still noticed that my foreskin retained a mildly reddish. yesterday I had sex and fast forward 24 hrs later I noticed that the head of my penis has several red spots. there not raised and not itchy nor do they burn. is this a case of balantitis / yeast infection ? or something else ?
I have only had 1 vaginal sex partner however I have had several other encounters but no penetration. just mutual masterbation.
attached is a picture.
bhank you all in advance slightly worried and concerned. I've applied some antifungal/steroid cream for the time being.
here is another picture
thanks
hi all. so update its been 5 days that I’ve been using am antifungal. redness has gone done but it still there tho very minor. it’s not itching or bothering me at all really but since it’s been kinda on and off still has be concerned. there has been no crusting over or anything like that. does that exclude it from being herpes ?
thanks please if anybody has any insight let me know
Any update?
