I am not sure what is this. It did has some tingling itch but no sores or pain so far. Is this balanitis or something worser?
Probably just Balanitis
Really? the dots and redness are more visible when erection. Is there any cream or medicine to cure this?
yea it is balanitis i had exact same problem, i used canesten/Clotrimazole cream for 9 days..
thanks for your reply. I am not quite sure but the dots and redness are more visible when erection. Is it the same for your case? You have recovered after 9 days?
yes it was more visible when erect, for me it took a bit longer, usually it takes up to 1 month.. it is ok unless you have any other issue like itchiness, or pain.
So did you figure out what I thought was?
I'm not sure if using leftover soap that I usually don't use cause this or perhaps jerking too hard and having it become dry....
How do you think you got this? Have you been intimate recently? (Even if not penetration)
It looks like balanitis but you need to have a test to be 100%. The symptoms are very similar to other STI’s but the only way to be sure is to go see the GP and get a test.
when i wash up i have some little red spots on my glans, then it go away then it comes back , what can it be , someone ?please help
yesterday i was on the swimming pool and today i have like 3of them and tomorrow it will be gone im sure , so tell that its not genital herpes or something not curable 😩😩im tooo worried and scared 😭
It might not be anything to worry about, could be a reaction to the chemicals that they put in the swimming pool or something else causing irritation. The best thing to do is just get a test done which are fast and painless, then you can be sure that everything is ok and no need to worry about it.
Do you get any solution??
I think I have the same problem, but recently I started to get some itchiness, but I think is because I dry the head, and before I didn't do it and didn't get itchiness.
did you ever find a solution to this? My issue looks pretty much the exact same and has been going on for almost 6 months now.
While I was traveling last year, I had sex with 3 different women. However, I always used a condom. All of them gave me a blow job. Stupid me, all of them smoked. I’m not sure if there’s anything to do with what I had on my penis. I am not circumcised.
My issues: Tingling sensation under my foreskin. This will come and go around 20 times per day and it drove me crazy. Red penis head. I can rub off smegma after a few hours. I had no bumps, no discharge came out from my urethra. I shower daily, clean, and I’m healthy.
Treatments: Saw 2 urologists, 2 chinese doctors, 2 primary care doctors, 1 dermatologist online, 1 general doctor online. They prescribe me all kinds of cremes and some oral medicine. Chinese doctors gave me medicine to “clean my system.” At first, I thought I have a yeast infection, since that’s what everyone think it was. I even went to Planned Parenthood because they took my insurance. I’ve watch multiple youtube videos, youtubers suggests me to do cleansing (juicing for 3 days). Used several steroid creams, which is supposed to be bad for you. All blood test negative and all doctors think it was balanitis.
I WAS LOSING HOPE…
Solution: The online dermatologist suggest me to see a dermatologist in person. I made an appointment and waited a few weeks. I was lucky. My dermatologist actually cared about his patients. Smegma doesn’t always appear on my penis, but I purposely didn’t shower the night before. I knew that smegma might build up. He took a small sample during my visit. He prescribed me a cream while we were waiting for the lab results. Cream didn’t help. 2 weeks later when the results came back, the lab found SCANT GROWTH OF ENTEROCOCCUS FAECALIS. You can google what that is. He then prescribed me MUPIROCIN 2%. He also gave me a sample of ELIDEL (very expensive). I used the mupirocin for a week and told me to apply Elidel as well. I was using these simultaneously. I really think that mupirocin killed the bacteria for me, but I’m not really sure. He instructed me to use it everyday for a least a week and slowly wear them off by applying 3 days a week afterward.
IT WORKED..
My Doctor told me to be patience because I’ve used so many creams on my penis. He said my skin had taken a beating… Patience paid off and I’m fine now. The most frustrating part in this experience was I couldn’t discuss this issue with anyone… of course, it was an embarrassing topic. I only told one girl about it because I had to explain to her why we couldn’t have sex.
I hope this helps.
not really sure what is on my penis head but its freaking me out! i use protection! Rarely itches and there is no pain or weird discharge! PLEASE HELP
