Well here goes. I recently "hooked" back
up with an old flame at a bar after being
apart for about 5 months. We both got a
little drunk and went back home with her
where we proceeded to have sex
(unprotected) which was very stupid, I
know. She assured me she had not been
with anyone since me and neither was I so
it made me feel a little better but a few
days later while getting in the shower I
noticed my penis looked a little
different. It looks like its all wrinkled
up and seems to have shrunk a little bit
but that maybe all in my head because I
was freaking out about the whole rinkled
penis thing. Its weird to try and
describe but the skin is different as
well, it seems like it almost sun burnt.
The skin is very dry and almost flaky and
has a very dry feel when I touch it. Its
been about 10 days and its a little better
now but still has me very worried. Now I
know I should just go to my doctor and I
would if I had one but I have no health
insurance and I have been unemployed for 2
months now so I really don't have the cash
at this time but I haven't been able to
sleep now for a week and its making me
sick to my stomach when I think about it.
I have not had a lot of sexual partners
and always used protection and never ever
had any type of std's before so I am
really freaking out now cause of the
situation I am in. I spoke to her and she
swears she's fine and has had no issues
with her genital area but I have heard
that sometimes a female can be a carrier
and not show any symtoms and pass it on to
the male partner. Now the only thing that
was is we used that new ky gel that has
the warming agent in it which makes your
privates feel really warm and tingly which
was nice but maybe it had a reaction with
my skin and "burnt" it so to speak and its
taking time to heal itself? Kinda like a
sun burn and the skin needs to peel off to
make way for the new skin to come through?
Just a thought/guess and that would be
great if that's the case. I boy can dream
can't he. I have been searching for a
week now for any type of std's with these
symtoms and came up empty. Nothing at all
that I have been able to try and link it
to. I have no sores or weird discharges
or anything like that so I just don't
know. Anyone has only ideas or
suggestions they would be very
appreciated.
Thanks...

Well it can be from her or it can be
somekind of allergic reaction. If you
cant go see a doc because you dont have
insurance, try a free clinic or apply for
medical aide and get tested that way. I
dont believe guys are supposed to peel
like that so just try seeing a doc.

I just i'd put my 2 cents worth in
here....Contact the company by useing the
1-800 number on the box...And see if there
is a warning lable on the box....Sounds
like a reaction to me...But I am not a
Dr., and by the way try a free clinic
they may be able to help in some way
also...Good luck

Well just to give you an update things are
much better now. For the last 3 nights I
have been applying moisturizing lotion on
it and its starting to get back to normal
and looking like its old self again. Like
I mentioned earlier it was best described
as a sun burn without the sun and should
have started with the lotion earlier. I
have to say its quite a relief and I am
sure it was a reaction from the ky warming
gel so I will not be using that anymore.
So for anyone else out there that may be
thinking of using it just be carefull. It
does say may cause skin irritation on the
label. I should have known because I have
very sensitive skin and it must have been
a reaction to the gel. Thanks for your
input.
