What Causes Stinging From Penis After Using Hydrocortisone?

I masturbated last week and seemed to take a long time finishing. The next day Wednesday it seemed red and sore so I went to look for something at cvs and ended up buying hydrocortizone and applied it at 7:00 again at 9:00 after taking a hot bath figuring I washed it off and applied it again in the morning. I never read the directions and covered my penis in it before going to work thinking it would only help. I m thinking I put on too much and some got in my tip because it started stinging a little that morning. Friday I switched to desitin thinking that might help more because the hydrocortizone seemed to burn and sting. I again not learning from the day before generously applied it before going to work. It is now Monday night all I keep thinking about is this and have a constant feeling that my penis is tingling and there. I had protected sex 8 weeks ago and everything you read about discomfort urinating is stds but I think it s from the oitments. What do you think

Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
It may not be due to ointment as you think. Dry and rough handling of genitals during masturbation/intercourse can cause this. Please visit a doctor for examination and further management. Do not come to the conclusion on your own. All the best.
