Painless Red Spots On Penis Head After Intercourse. Is It Safe Trying Cortisone Cream?

Hello, Doctor, For the last few months I ve been occasionally getting flat red spots on the head of my penis immediately after intercourse. I wash and use lotion and the spots tend to scale over and flake off and eventually disappear after a few weeks. I ve been tested for most of the major STDs. The spots aren t painful, do not blister , and I have no other symptoms. Again, when they appear, they appear immediately after any kind of vigorous sex (vaginal, oral, even masturbation), or, if I already have a spot or two, the sex re-inflames them. I can t afford a dermatologist right now and it seems like Psoriasis from what I read... am I safe trying an OTC cortisone cream?

Hello
Thanks for your query.Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you are getting red spots on your glans repeatedly after sexual activity.
Most likely this is due to infection of the glans (Ballanitis) following dry vigorous sex or masturbation.
Please take broad spectrum antibiotics along with anti inflammatory medication like Diclofenac twice daily and topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin for local application..

Get the prescription of medicines from your family Physician.

Ensure to clean your genitals with warm water twice daily.
