Any bacterial infection due to intercourse is curable with antibiotics if treated properly. Infection after intercourse might be found in the urethra (urethritis) or on the skin and mucosa of the penis in men (balanitis).


Urethritis symptoms include: a stinging or burning feeling during urination, itching, burning or irritation inside the penis and discharge (milky or pus-like).


Balanitis symptoms include: small red dots (erosions) in the beginning which, if left untreated, might grow and turn into ulcers. The ulcers might be accompanied with pus and edema of the whole penile tissue.
