What Causes Irritation In The Penis And Scrotum After Sex?

Hi i had sex with a sex worker, stupid idea i know. Condom broke but i changed it immediately. But after sex i felt irritation on penis head and scrotum. When to see a doc, gave me antibiotics and cream, said that my skin was a bit teared/scratched around the underside of the foreskin due to friction. After a week the irritation has gone and the tear has healed but there was still some slight discomfort/itchiness once in a while at the tip of the penis and around the scrotum area. When to the doc again., Gave me another cream for the scrotum and penis head. 1 week later, itchiness around scrotum/head has gone but the slight discomfort is still apparent once in a while. On top of that, i keep having the urge to pee, especially at night. When i check my skin around the foreskin area, it seems to be normal again, doesnt seem to have any discharge but i cant be sure,. Should i be worried? Any advice? Thanks

Yes you could have a sexually transmitted disease. It could be viral or bacterial. Unless you test for it, it is quite difficult to say. Creams wont be of help. You will need to take antibiotics if it is bacterial. It could also be a urinary tract infection which will still need antibiotics to clear.
