Suggest Treatment For Small Red Spots On The Head Of Penis
Could be due to infection of Glans Penis (Ballanitis)
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to health care magic,
Based on the facts and photographs that you have posted,this red spots are likely to be due to infection of glans penis.
It would be also helpful for me to diagnose and rule out,if you could say if there is any history of unprotected intercourse in recent past?
If yes,is the woman whom you had sex with, is known to you?
Please take broad spectrum antibiotics like Cefotaxime twice daily and topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin for local application over glans.
You can consult some local doctor or your family physician who will know about the antibiotic.
Kindly get back to me with more information as i asked.
Thanks and Regards,
Dr.SandipKabra
Start treatment.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the follow-up.
Infection of glans penis could be secondary to allergic reaction to vaginal secretions of a woman you had a sex twice or bacterial infections,viral infection or rarely sexually transmitted infections but I will keep STI as the last possibility.
Start the treatment as i said earlier and for antibiotic prescription you can contact some local doctor.
Also,gently retract the foreskin daily and soak in warm water to clean penis and foreskin.
Avoid using soaps as they may irritate the skin and make the inflammation worse.
In case,if red spots persists even after 1 week of treatment,you should consult a dermatologist and get examined.
You may need some tests to determine the cause of the infection.
If you need more help then I will be happy to answer that.
