    Were the corticoid creams prescribed for you by a medical Professional, or did you obtain them to treat yourself? A yeast infection does not cause this, and, it is likely the doctor who told you that does not actually know what it is you have .....

    In terms of the actual condition, it is likely you have one of two things going on - i.) a Dermatological reaction to something the penis, and in particular, the head and foreskin of the penis are in regular contact with (I take it you are not circumcised); or ii.) the beginnings of a skin condition such as Balanitis.

    I will post some general information - you need to put in place the Penile Hygiene regime I suggest, then look at implementing the other tips and things to do if things do not improve or your condition worsens. If you want to update your forum here if you get any changes, then by all means do ..... PREVIOUSLY POSTED INFORMATION >>>>>>

    Penile Hygiene

    The best approach is not to use ANY SOAP on the Glans - wash with water only EVERY time you have urinated, after sexual arousal, and ejaculation. If you are not circumcised, protect the Glans of your penis every time you take a shower by drawing the foreskin as far forward as you can, then wash everywhere else, thoroughly rinse off all the gels / shampoo and suchlike, then expose your glans wash it with the water only using the inside of your hand, then each time you have washed it you must make sure it is 100% dry immediately afterwards.

    After you have put this in place and you still have the situation going on you need to look at what else your penis is coming into contact with on a fairly regular basis. The likely suspects are:-

    any chemical compounds such as skin cream / lotions, baby oil, oil based lubes, chemicals inside condoms (e.g. easy-on and spermicides) you need to exclude these one by one to discover the culprit

    if non of these make any difference you need to look to things such as washing powder in which you wash your clothes, and underwear in, in particular. The simple alternative to washing powder is Liquid Soap Flakes, most sizeable supermarkets stock this in their own brand names - and you use this in your washing machine instead of powders or ANY fabric conditioner type additives.

    If all this produces no resolution to what you have, or your condition dramatically worsens, seek medical advice from your regular Doctor - but please note, many do not fully understand the differences between the potential skin conditions you may potentially have. Therefore, the better course of action may be to see a Dermatologist, or alternatively, go to a Specialist Sexual Health Service and ask to see the duty Urologist.

      I did exams for herpes simplex 1 and 2, now i have the results.

      IGG : 23,8

      IGM: 3,33

      What you think? I'm infected now? Or i had contact with the virus sometime in my life and now i don't have anymore? I can't understand that results. Ah, the corticoid creams that i used, was prescribed by a doctor.

      roni01, you need to understand that I have no medical training whatsoever, I have several penile conditions that I need to deal with on a daily basis - this is what I base my advice on. I have no experience of ever having a Sexual Infection.

      A Medical Professional would need to interpret the results you were given. You needed to ask the direct question "what do these results mean?"

      I will repost my advice on Penile Hygiene and the other things to do as it does not appear correctly above .......
