Burning Sensation On Penis, Unprotected Sex, Discoloration Around The Rim. Any Advice?
I have a burning sensation on the outside of the head of my penis, which began immediately after having unprotected sex and has persisted for several days. There may be slight discoloration around the rim of the head, but I'm not sure if that's real or if I am being paranoid. I have an appointment next week, but would appreciate any help you could provide.a

Unprotected sex welcomes a number of anaerobic infections as well as sexually transmitted diseases which can be diagnosed only after proper examination and investigation.However the redness and discoloration might be due to break in the epithelial lining during the episode or might be one of the manifestations of the above said.I suggest you to meet a dermatologist at the earliest(not till next week).Hope this helps.Take care.
