Feeling Itchy And Burning Sensation Under The Penis. Is It Due To Sex With Partner Having Vaginal Thrush?

hi I got a question, my girlfriend has vaginal thrush at first we did not know what it was, but we continued our sex activity, now a week or two later I have been feeling itchy around the base of the penis right under the head, and it burns when I have sex, also there is a little peeling happening on the penis. should I be worried? is it thrush has been passed to me?

hi,
yes it looks like you have got thrush from your partner. now apply local antifungal creams. and also take fluconazole for 4 weeks, once a week.

always use condom when your partner is having some problem or avoid sex.

meet your doctor for further treatment.

wish you early recovery
