Tight Foreskin Causing Painful, Bleeding Penis While On Treatment For UTI. Have Diabetes. Any Suggestions?

Hi. I have diabetes and have been treated for a urinary tract infection that has not responded well to the treatment. Because of the constant urination, my foreskin is tight because of the diabetes and having to retract it because the urine is going all over the place, my penis is irritated, bleeding and painful. What can I use to alleviate the symptoms while I wait to be treated yet again for the UTI.

Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you are known diabetic and is facing problem of passing urine due to Phimosis.

Please see that your diabetes id well controlled

Please take anti fungal medication orally for a week along with topical anti fungal jelly for application over foreskin.

Consult qualified Urologist for evaluation .You may need to get circumcised to resolve your problem.
