Rash or STD? Head of the Penis Possible Infected
Posted: 03-08-06 20:00pm

Okay, first off.. I am a 15 year old male.. I have been having pre cum.. I have been masturbating since the age of 10.. I was just wondering if anyone could help me with this..
This weekend I masturbated and I noticed that I had this red mark on the tip of my penis, and a little blister looking thing on the skin.. (i have had this before and I never really thought it was a problem).. Then after words I realized that I have maybe a discharge come out.. Clear one.. I have had this rash problem right after I masturbate ever couple weeks.. Sometimes every month..
Does anyone know if this is a sign of an std.. If so then please state which one. Because I am a little worried and I dont know what to do.. If not can you please state if I just have a rash or something..?
Please help me out and post back if you have any questions..
Thanks

It seems that you are experiencing inflammation of the skin on the head of the penis (balano-postitis). There is very small possibility of contracting an STD without sexual contact with another person. The inflammation could be a skin allergy that has been complicated with an infection. Infection is not always transmitted from another person but it can be endogenous (produced by growth from your own deep tissue). You can visit a dermatovenerologist who will help you identify and treat the cause of this inflammation.
