What Causes Erectile Dysfunction?
Hi. About 2 months ago my penis became very red and swollen along with being realy itchy. After seven days I came to the conlusion that it could be a fungus infection so I put some cream on it that would help. The swelling and redness reduced, but it still looks wrinkly and now it seems very dry when I get an erection. I thought it might be chlamydia so I got myself tested, but it was negative. What do you think it could be?

Hi,
If you had unprotected sex - need to rule out sexually transmitted infection chlamydia test alone won't help you had unprotected sex - you need to do a panel of sexually transmitted infection tests.
It can be due to fungal - few days treatment won't help, you need to take treatment for at least 4-week continuous with appropriate antifungal cream.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
