What Causes Itching In The Testicles After An Intercourse?

default
Posted on Wed, 3 Aug 2016
Question: Hello. After 20+ hours of having sex my testicles started itching... Didn't pay much attention next day I noticed small rash on my penis. There was a foul smell too .the rash never hurt or itched on my penis.I was super concerned so I got tested for herpes right after 72 hours from sex. Thanks god it came back negative. I have few questions. Decently I discover couple bumps on the head of the penis no pain or itching.. My old bumps are white like scars now. Question is how accurate can the blood test be. I have pictures If needed.
Nothing visible on testicles. Question number two is...can this be yeast infection.. BTW I just got done taking antibiotics and on that day I took the double dosage of over the counter testosterone medication just to make sure I have good long sex

Brief Answer:
You could still be having a STD.

Detailed Answer:
Hello xxxxxxxxx and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist,i can understand your concern.

You could still be having a STD infection,which doesn't get cured with antibiotics.
It's better to send the pictures,to get a proper idea of your problem.

Never take a testosterone booster,as it has many side effects,that affect health.
Reply with the pictures.
Avoid sex,till you're cured of your present problem.

Brief Answer:
The pictures suggest a fungal infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Niko,

The pictures are suggestive of a fungal infection,like candidiasis or yeast.
Herpes infection is also a possibility.

The blood tests are best done after a period of about 6-8 months.
A STD panel tests of VDRL,HIV and HbsAg can be done.

Anti-fungal ointments,like fluconazone or clotrimazole may be used.
It'll take about two to three weeks to settle down.

Maintain good penile hygiene and avoid moisture over that area.
Wish you well.
