Current medical status: Recently,i noticed my penis is itching me,when it itch comes white mucho(white substances)discharged from the penis.
Current medical treatment: I went to see a doctor, i was given 500mg of ampiclox and 250 tetraxyclean to be taken twice daily.

A white mucous discharge, coming out of the penis, indicates that you might have an inflammation of the urethra (urethritis). A genital infection is the most common reason for a penile discharge. The type of infection can be precisely determined by taking a urethral smear for a microbiological examination.

The two antibiotics, which your doctor prescribed to you, are efficient against most of the bacteria that cause urethritis.
