Suggest Remedy For A Sensitive Rash On The Genitals
Question: Im led to the assumption that i have some sort of STD. After masterbating i some times get a strange red rash near the tip and that area feels very sensitive. Also i often have a feeling of soreness. I masterbate about 5 times a week, so i dont think that its a matter of doing it to often.
Brief Answer:
Seems to be a an irritation rather than any STD.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Thanks for posting your query.
Masturbating 5 times a week is quite normal for your age. It will not do to any harm. Masturbation never leads to any STD. Have you any other sexual activities like vaginal or anal sex? What made you think that you are likely to have STD?
Abnormal sensation near the tip of glans penis following masturbation is not abnormal. The rashes over the glans penis could be due to some irritation like soaps or some antiseptics or lubricants applied by you. The picture sent by you did not show any evidence for STD. Even there was not much of redness, a sign of inflammation. Repeated washing with water may sometimes relieve your problem.
Anyhow it is better to have a consultation from physician who will have a close examination of the part and with the help of investigations (if needed), will give a better solution for your problem.
Get well soon.
