Suggest Remedies For Tingling Sensation In The Penis
Hi, I had unprotected sex almost 3 days ago and I noticed there was a slight tingly feeling on the tip of my penis. As a precaution a doctor has prescribed me with famciclovir until I get conclusive results from blood & urine test. I ve noticed that the tingling feeling has gone away in the last 24 hour and has only just returned when I ejaculate. It almost feels like I ve irritated the skin down there which leads me to believe maybe I ve worn the skin from rough dry sex? I m not showing any other symptons such as discharge, burning while peeing, sore throat etc. What could this be?

Hello,
Continue to take Famciclovir till the reports of the blood & urine test come. Whether you will have to continue taking Acyclovir or just need antibiotics will depend upon the report of the tests.
Stay away from sex for a couple of days till you are being treated. Rough sex with little lubrication could have been the cause of your discomfort if you are not diagnosed with STI.
Use lubricants & if yo have low testosterone, get treated. It can be effectively be treated with gels, Pills & patches.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
