Hi. So I have this tingling sensation right next/under my glans clit. It s not that itchy...and when I tried to pulled the tip back a little to see what was going I noticed a little tiny bump n it hurts to the touch a little or make the tingling sensation worse.

ello,
Welcome to HCM,

The history and symptoms suggests me that you are having a fungal infection but it should be confirmed by physical examination. Don't be embarrassed to show and confirm the diagnosis.

The fungus are the normal commensals of this area which will be kept under control by the helpful organisms, whenever there is a change in environment because of multiple reason these fungus will multiply and produces the symptoms.

I would suggest you to follow
1.Keep the area dry and clean by maintaining the good hygiene.
2.Topical antifungal cream should be applied.
3.Tab Diflucan, 150 mg single dose will help to control the symptoms.
4.For itching you can take anti histamines.
Thank you.

Hello,
Thank you for your contact to healthcare magic.
I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you that the chances of yeast infections increases as you got treated for bacterial infections. I advice you Gram's staining cfrom the white lesion. It will guide about yeast and the probable treatment after it.

I will be happy to answer all your future concern.
Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
Infectious disease specialist.
Wish you a best health at health care magic.
