Inflamed and painful penis tip for almost 2 months
Posted , 72 users are following.
Hello,
I've had penis inflammation around the opening and pain for almost 2 months now. I've tried Clotrimazole, Hydrocortisone, Doxycyline, Rocephin, and seen a Urologist. My urine analysis had no white cells. I was negative on std panel. The pain is driving me crazy at this point. The pain is mainly on the tip where it is most inflamed, though it causes a rash further down the glans. Any opinions?

you can have heroes and it not show up positive for months after exposure. I had the same thing and a 5 day course of Valtrex cleared it up quickly.

sorry... Herpes. I know it sucks to think but it will take some time to test positive so your blood test may not have shown it if you were tested soon after exposure and symptoms.

im going through the same thing, had this for 10 months. I did a blood test for herpes and shows i have HSV1. I could have caught this before but guessing as i received oral without protection its come from that? no way to know for sure, but never had cold sores and my dick was fine before all this. I could accept herpes but not permanent symptoms and irritation.

Has anyone found out what this is ?
My penis looks the same as the pictures and my story is the same as all of most of you. Just finished my second round of sti testing and all is clear. Also, just finished my second round of antibiotics and there has been no change. Ive had this problem for 2 months now and Im getting fustrated. Im experiencing tingling and weird sensations and im scared and confused at this point. The girl i got it from has had no symptoms at all either.
can anyone help? the doctors are lost and dont know what to tell me.

I'm in the same situation. I've been to 2 general doctors and 1 dermatologist and the treatments they gave me have not worked. I still have 2 more appointments with other doctors to see if they give me an alternate solution. I really hope that we can find a solution to this horrible thing.

Hey everybody, I've been facing the exact same symptoms, medications, and physical appearance since Oct 2020. Unfortunately I too am not anywhere near a cure or healing. All my STI tests came back negative, been on about dozen meds/creams the last 6 months and no progress except for large pain being exterminated at the end of Oct 2020. I had oral sex for less than 15 seconds and 2 days later i noticed the inflammation and its been there since. The other two symptoms that have not gone away are dribbling after I urinate (even when I stand over the toilet minutes after I finish to make sure theres none left, and 30 seconds later when I bend over to pick something up I dribble in my underwear about 1/4, as if I didnt empty my bladder; the other symptom is consistant urination about every 1-2 hours with or without having liquids. The bladder mediciation only lessened the overactive bladder when I was taking the meds, but a week after I finished them, the hourly peeing started again and remains. I guess another symptom I face from time to time are aching varicoceles in my testacles, about 3 times a month. Im convinced based on everything Ive read so far on this topic that its either Herpes, early Prostate cancer or something new our doctors arent aware of yet. They keep prescribing us meds for what they know but maybe the reason it hasnt gone away is because its new, unknown to medical professionals. I havent had sex since, but I do continue masterbate here and there. Since the inflammation is coming out of the penis, I also assume its a scarred urethra, something that perhaps only surgery could fix, but even that might be too risky for the rest of our lives. I used to get horny often but ever since this happened I have to put in some effort to get hard, and my semen amount has decreased by about 1/3 since Oct. My diet hasnt changed before this happened, fruits veges protein sugar and a bunch of water. I cant really run or walk fast because the inflammation is exposed and very sensitive to what it hits in my underwear, and wearing tight underwear for a long period of time makes the varicoceles in my testes act up. I hope our doctors cam figure this out instead of countless wasted STI tests and temporary meds. Ill be checking on here from time to time as well.

i have been tested for herpes and it came back negative twice. To rule it out for sure, i plan to take a third test in a couple more months as some have said herpes doesnt show up in the first few months. The urethra is obviously scarred on the inside causing inflammation to rise right outside the tip of the penis. i dont know how doctors are missing that. ive also recently cut out sugar/alcohol/masturbation/spices from my diet to see if that will show progress in time as a few others on here have noticed huge deflation and less effects.

Its ruining my life too, i feel so far away from how i used to live, not knowing if ill ever not have to concerned about this again. its not something you can really talk to anybody else about in the open except doctors and others that have it. i wish that someone who has gone through it and completely healed could guide us. My main fear is hidden, very early on developing cancer that wont be caught until its too late, and if it is, this is the time to possibly stop it for good. ive also recently noticed random small aches near my heart and ribs that appear a couple times a day for about 60 minutes then just disappear. Im tired of the dribbling, im tired of not being able to jog, im tired of thinking i may not be able to produce enough semen to have kids someday, when 7 months ago there was so much of it, i definitely take it for granted now. Less than 15 seconds of oral sex activated or scarred something, something important which changes how i eat, sit, lay, sleep, wake up, walk, run, get dressed, energy intake, my will to live. If my next test comes back negative again, no other doctor will notice something different. The one thing we all have in common here is no matter how many doctors or what prescriptions taken, theres been no cure. Although 6 months ago i did read a post on here that said it took a man 5 years of going through this, and after trying so many meds and seeing so many different kinds of professionals that failed him, he woke up one day and it was all gone, the body healed it by itself in due time. However theres also ppl on here that have had it for over 5 years and still no progress, so the only thing we each have is time and fate, or God, or luck. Thats how i see it for now. i hope im wrong.

Everyone has dribbling, I have it since I was a kid, that is part of a human nature.
And yes let your body heal it the most. The more you are stressing about it the worse it gets and your tests will come negative, I took mine after 5 months after the b*****b and they came negative, all tho I even kissed the girl after and I got red patches in my mouth. That could be some kind of yeast but for yeast best way to heal it is natural meds like teas and stuff. In USA they don't belive it this kind of stuff. Start reading about it on Europe websites or Mexicans.
