Hi, I have noticed i have a slight tear under my penis i think its the frenulum tear. Symptoms are my foreskin is swollen and red, when i urinate and it runs down over the cut/tear it stings really bad for a few seconds. Also i seem to be leaking some fluid like substance and it has a smell to it. What is my problem?

Hello
Thanks for query .Based on he symptoms that you have described you seem to have infection of foreskin (Posthatitis) .

Many a times it is a presenting symptom of Diabetes hence get your blood sugar test done to rule out Diabetes .

You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime and anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily along with topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice daily.

Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily.

Ensure to avoid sexual encounters till it heals up completely.
