Q: Rash On Penis
asked by: ineedinfo on September 15th, 2005

Ok here is the deal. I have a rash on my penis below the head. It looks like ringworm in the way that it has really defined edges and clear in the center. It dont really hurt but it gets irritated very easily. It also looks like little bumps. It sometimes gets really dry and scaly like on the edge line. The edges are a little raised but not too bad. I went to the doctor and they said it was a fungal infection and prescribed me ketaconozole, I applied this like they said for like 2 months and it looked as if it was going away but then it stopped in progress. I went back and was prescribed lamasil tablets which I have taken for three months, again it looked as if it were disappearing but has again stopped in progression and still there. I am stumped on what to do next I have had all std test run and they have all came up negative, have had them run probably like three times and are always negative. I am stumped now on what to do cause it seems like the doctors know nothing of what it is. Any help on this matter what be greatly appreciated.

You can try using hydrogen peroxide on it daily to help kill any bacteria in the area. Bacteria would slow the healing down considerably, allowing for reinfection. It is cheap, too. You can try pouring the peroxide into a glass and soaking your penis in it for 5 - 10 minutes, or you can use a soaked cotton ball several times a day. If the peroxide burns too much you can dilute it a bit. When you clean, though, make sure you get the entire genital area, not just that one irritated spot.
