Suggest Treatment For Red And Irritated Foreskin

default
Posted on Wed, 29 Apr 2015
Question: My mouth/lip are very red and irritated also my penis at the dark area , where foreskin was, is also slightly red and irritated(no real sores just red and irritated). where penis shrinks and skin bunches near head. Rash looks more like its on the surface of skin. Penis sometimes aches.Sometime it feels like there is leakage but there is no discharge. I also have chronic fatigue,with some days better than others. Very fuzzy headed. This has been going on for around 15 years, It started a few weeks after a deep kiss with someone. I have been tested for STI's on a number occasions. I have also been to many different doctors including ENT and skin with no results. I was put on an anti fungal med recently for a month, I could not tell if it made a difference.I have also tried many different prescription creams. My immune system has been tested a few times with no negative results. I give blood to the Red Cross so that has been tested to their standards. I am married 14 years and she states that she has no systems. Her lips are a little red around the edges but she does not complain about them. But my daughters lips are like mine. She was a C-section birth so the only way this was transmitted was by a simple kiss on lips. I have done much research online and nothing matches what I have. I have had other women before I got married that thought that they had got something from me but nothing seemed to materialize and they never got back with me. I know that this is something so I appreciate your help.

Repeatedly if the tests for STDs including HIV is negative ,I do not see the possibility of HIV or other STDs.So you can allay fears of HIV and STDs totally. Forget about the previous episodes and lead a normal life.

The lesion on penis may be due to fungal infection or irritation or friction or allergy. You can send clear photos of lesion including lips for clarification.
Wear loose cotton inner wears.
Do not cause irritation or friction.
Use gentle soaps or cleanser.
Do not over clean the area.
Check for any diabetes if due to fungal infection.

Relax.Do exercises, yoga,meditation.
