Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Redness And Soreness Around The Penis?
I have redness and a slight soreness around my penis. I have used trimovate prescribed by my doctor but my chemist cannot obtain it. Why is this ? Is it because I have an NHS prescription. Would I be more likely to get it with a private prescription ? I am 68 and in reasonably good health. Neil Workman
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to penile eczema. Trimovate cream is a steroid cream for local application. In case that you you don't find Trimetovate you can also use another steroid cream for local application.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
