How Can An Infected Wound On The Penis Be Treated?
I have a wound on my penis, on the glans . I have already consult with a doctor & he prescribed me following medicine 1.Doxy 1L 2.Zeeg 3.metrogel 4.fucidin cream I have not done any sexual activities previously. Every time I apply the cream after some times a white coating is created and when I try to clean it a clean liquid is discharged from the wound it seems the wound is not healing. Please advise should I leave the wound open(pulling back the foreskin) or not. My doctor is out of station & I need your advice on it.
