Itchy Foreskin And Moisture Under It Posted: 06-01-07 07:37am
Hi im almost 18 and For some time now I
feel I have been itching way to much. My
foreskin constantly gets itchy, and Even
if i dry my penis completely after
washing, there is a lot of moisture
buildup whenever I roll back the foreskin.
Even when I go to the toilet and roll it
back I can smell the stench of the
moisture. On very rare occasions my
foreskin will swell up, turn red, and be
very itchy. I dont know what all this
could be?.
Could it be some form of yeast infection?
What creams can i use to help stop it.
Another thing, sometimes I notice that the
patch in my undies at the end of my penis
is wet. I know that I must discharge
something occasionally during the day.
Could this be left over urine?
Ahh someone help.

Sounds to me like a yeast infection. Have
you recently been with a woman who had one
or taken antibiotics? Yeast infections in
men are laregly caused by taking oral
antibiotics such as penicillin. Discharge
is also common when a man has a yeast
infection. The only sure way cure of
getting rid of the infection itself is to
get a prescription for Diflucan
(fluconazole) or Nizoral (ketaconazole)
creams from your doctor or clinic.
Normally if your a woman you can buy these
ovuals or applicators to dispense the
cream into the vagina over the counter.
As far as being a man those wont work so I
would think you'd have to get the straight
cream from the doctor. If you cannot get
to a clinic or see your doctor within the
next couple of days I would suggest
picking up some cream made by monistat
that can be used to help reduce the
itching, redness, and soreness until you
can get in. This comes in a tube in just
cream form and can be found by generally
the condoms and other contraceptive and
lubricant items.
