I was diagnosed with reactive arthritis 5 years ago due to a chlamydial infection and have come to accept the pain in my joints. But the one thing that never went away and really bothers me is the ulcers on my penis. They don't hurt but that look so bad and create a bad odor. Is there any way at all to manage this? There is no information anywhere.

    Hey bro, In regards to your condition, its circinate balanitis and can be cured. You need to get tacrolimus 1% cream or pimecrolimus 1%, cant believe the doctors have made you live with it so long. The cream should clear you up in a week. I dont have balanitis but ive done so much research on ReA already.
