Sores/sti? Help please
Posted , 3 users are following.
Recently started having sex witha new partner. And recently noticed strange perfectly circular sores around the head of my penis. They are not painful, sore, itchy etc. No discomforr, discharge or funny smells. Etc. Although it does burn/sting sometimes when I urinate or ejaculate. Looked at numorous photos of Sti's and symptoms. And I'm struggling. Visiting the gum clinic Monday. Anybody shed any light on what it couldbe. Thanks

Yeah herpes has crossed my mind IL be honest. I don't think it's syphillis. Just doesn't look like photos I've seen on Google. I've tried some canestan cream for the time being. Incase it's a fungal infection/thrush and it hasn't burned since I've been the toilet. And the sores don't seem so blantent now. Me and my partner do have alot of rough sex. Thought it could of been friction burns at first but the sores don't seem that way. I'm going gum first thing in the morning. Thankyou for your help. IL keep you posted with results

Yeah if you could post a photo that would be great. Obviously a bit worried it could be something. IL find out tomorrow when I go Gum. Started with red dots after my partner lubed me up and gave me a handjob. Thought it would of been friction burns at first from when the lube had dried up or something. But the circles seem rather worrying. Fingers crossed it ain't anything serious. I haven't come across any photos that look the exact same as what I've got. Slightly sceptical though

Been looking through googlr images Steve and came across lichen planus. Looks like what you've got. Don't think it's harmful

Been the gum this morning. And they don't think it's anything serious. They said it doesn't look like herpes. If it was I would of blistered. Had groin pain. And been in a lot of pain with the sores. They think it could be a fungal infecrion of some kind or lube or something has irratating the head. She said it looks very very dry and I have cracks on the head aswell. Told me to drink plenty of water and salt water bath

Elocon cream should help out to if there’s inflammation involved.
