hey a blister/bump thing appeared on my penis head about a month ago and i got tested for all STDs. the doctor said that it might be fungal but looks rather strange to me. he gave me an antifungal cream and it had not yet made a difference. Any idea of what this could be or if anyone has had similar issues i'm really worried. Also, should i wait to have sex??!

I would suggest abstaining from sex until you know what is going on.
Are you able to upload a photo of the area?

Sorry for the delay. There are some characteristics of a fungal infection, but it may be lichen sclerosus. How long was the cream prescribed for?

no worries, the cream (lamasil) has been prescribed for 2 weeks twice a day. one week has gone by and i have seen no significant changes. worried about when i can be sexually active again. thanks

As i am not a doctor, I would continue to apply the cream for one more week to see if ultimately ends up being the right treatment. If it still hasn't improved at the end of that time frame, you should follow up with the doctor regarding LS.
