According to the symptoms you describe, (itching boils on your penis) and the data about persistence of the same symptoms in your wife, there is a great possibility that you are experiencing a sexually transmitted disease, probably the same disorder as your wife. You'll need to get tested to identify the precise diagnosis of the condition .... and you should be treated at the same time as your wife.
