Does Balanitis Get Transmitted Through Intercourse?

My boyfriend might have balantis and i am afraid that if we do any sexual things that it may be contagious and when he told me about it this morning i offered to suck his dick to see if it would feel better for him but i thought about it and am worried that something would happen and i would end up having it spread to my mouth or face or get something else from it. So really my question is do you think i would be able to suck his dick still and not get anything from it and also help him not be so itchy or hurting.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
thank you for your query.....

see balanitis mostly occurs from bacterial infections but may occur with viral infections and sometimes autoimmune diseases...
however you are only suspecting balanitis and you are not sure...
it might be something else that your boyfriend is suffering from....

its better to avoid contact for the infective period of the disease...
take him to a doctor, get the lesions thoroughly checked, get medications if needed and as prescribed, and let it be healed...

then you guys can definitely get back to your normal sexual life...

hope this was useful....

you can contact me anytime for any further questions...

regards
