What Does A Persistent Dry Rash On The Penis Indicate?
Hello, I am a healthy 22 year old male... for the past week I noticed what it seems like a rash on my penis. The rash is located just below the head (on the skin covering the base), it s red but does not itch or hurts. I ve never had anything like this which makes me think it is only a rash from lack of cleaning or from wearing the same underware for too long. I ve had the same sexual partner (female) for the last 7 months where everything was okay. I don t seem to have any other symptoms but the rash does not seem to go away, while other smaller spots seem to be opening but I m not sure about that. It seems to get better while it s dry and I haven t had any sex for a period of time where the rash is dry.
hi sir/madam, Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
Yeast Infection may be the cause of your rashes. It is an overgrowth of fungus also known as Candidiasis, that causes a red rash on the penis and itching and burning on the tip of the penis.It is more common in uncircumcised men.
Consult your doctor for further treatment.
