What Causes Reddish Rash Around Penis?
I had unprotected sex about two months ago. A couple of days later I noticed a red rash around penis shaft. It been two months now its very red and very uncomfortable. I ve tryed all kinds of creams but nothing seems to work. Please tell me what to do. Went to docter he said it from having ruff sex but I don t think so since its been two months.

Hello,
Red rash around penis could be due to trauma or sexually transmitted disease (STD). If the rash does not disappear within few days, I suggest you to consult dermatologist for clinical assessment to rule out STD.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
