They feel like the glands are swollen, not a bump like an ulcer. Very tender to the touch and sending shooting pains down my right leg. Maybe 3 inches below the hip flexor area. Starting to make my testicles feel tender.
Hi there,
Thanks for writing back,
The pain is due to the swollen inguinal nodes,which are due to the underlying infection. Orchitis may be a cause of tender testicles. This is known to cause groin pain, tenderness and a painful heavy feeling in the testicle.
I would suggest that you get a complete blood count and a screen for chlamydia and gonorrhea through urethral smear and a urine culture as well.
Depending on the reports, we can start you on the right combination of antibiotics. Please see your GP for the same
Let me know if I can address any more questions

Alright went to the doctor and they gave me azithromycin, rocephrin. Prior to going to the docter red blistering like bumps began to form near the base of the penis shaft. They are not grouped together but one or two, and are tiny. Is this something that will clear up with antibiotics also? To be noted I did try XXXXXXX on my genitals so could any of it be a reaction to that?
Hi there,
Thanks for writing back.
The doctor prescribed you with a combination of macrolide antibiotic (azithromycin) and cephalosporin antibiotic (rocephrin), most of the bacterial infections caused are usually treated with the combination of 2 antibiotics and get well with it.
The infection gets started spreading to the lower shaft of penis, let’s stick on to the antibiotics, and it is not due to XXXXXXX
Lets follow the dosage of antibiotics provided and look out for the improvement of conditions, in case of worsening lets inform him, which require further follow up, and digging of further pathogen.
Let me know if you had further questions with you.
Get well soon.

I have a picture of the bumps that seem to be appearing with more frequency. They are tiny, blister like and when popped they itch afterwards like crazy!!! Im beginning to freak out, the doc said if i herpes it would be alot of open sores that are very painful, but small blisters that itch dont boost confidence. What could it be?
Hi there,

Your symptoms sound like folliculitis. It is inflammation of one or more hair follicles. The damaged follicles are then infected with the bacteria staphylococcus. This can happen due to rubbing of hairs over the penis causing the damage of hair follicles.
Apply ointment ultramide twice daily over the itchy bumps, after washing the bumps and drying with soft towel and see if they are reducing in number.
If the symptoms persist, then you need to consult your doctor for examination & oral antibiotics & other medications will be prescribed accordingly.
Let me know if you have further questions.
Thank you.
