Red Bumps On The Head Of The Penis. Prescribed With Xogel For Fungal Infection. Advised To Consult Urologist. Why?

I have red bumps on the head of my penis. I want to the skin doctor and said it was yeast or skin fungus. The Doctor prescribed XOGEL for two weeks. I did not remove the bumps. I went back to the doctors and she wanted to cut a piece of the skin of the penis to look into it. I did not do it. Also, I checked for STDS and i came out negative. The doctor recomment to see a urologist. What can you advise?

Hi there ~

I understand your concerns. I believe the red bumps on the head of your penis is due to infection. You were prescribed medication and they have not helped. I believe there is reason to believe that you need to get checked for STDs which was negative. The lesions seems like they are a herpetic infection and I hope you have been tested for that, if not you need to be so as to rule that out. I hope this helps.

Take care and have a lovely day!
