Suggest Treatment For Frictional Cuts On Penis

Posted on Mon, 18 May 2015

Question: I had a few cuts on my penis show up a few hours after sex. I'm not sure if it was physical trauma to the penis as I was pretty intoxicated during sex and do not recall. Just wondering if it could be HSV? I have attached pictures of the cuts

Brief Answer:
Frictional cuts

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query and photographs.
It is looking like friction cuts.
There is nothing to worry it's not herpes.
Herpes needs at least 5 days to develop.
Just apply some antibiotics cream like mupirocine for 5 days.
This will give you relief.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
