Posted on Tue, 2 Jun 2015
Question: So most of the time urethra (penis hole) is dry, when I hold my penis in my hand. but when I press it a little I see some water like liquid. is it a discharge by anychance or its normal. I liquid like thing came out in morning when I pressed the my urethra rest of the day it was dry . Can it be caused by rough masterbation?(I also have urge to pee a lot). I hve already had urine test for Gonorrhea and Chlmydia after 15 days after after my last sexual contact but it was negative. I have rashes on scrotum which my doctor says is fungal infection and Using lotriderm for that. But after some rough masturbation and using lotriderm I also felt some burn like feeling on glans penis. Can anyone please tell is it a herpes by anychance, does it causes discharge?

Brief Answer:
HSV infection can cause urethritis in rare situation.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Thanks for posting your query.
If your morning discharge is clear and slightly viscus then it could be due to precum or pre ejaculatory fluid. It is secreted by glands in the urethra when anybody gets stimulated sexually. The purpose of this secretion is to clean the urethra and make it alkaline and congenial to the safe passage of spermatozoa when it is ejaculated.
Herpes can rarely be a cause of non gonococcal urethritis and can produce serous discharge. Herpes is a self limiting disease and would not persist for more than a week or two and would be burning while passing urine. Examination and investigations on the discharge will reveal the cause. Meet an expert venereologist, he/she will help you in this regard.

Brief Answer:
Scrotal rash might be due to some skin conditions, not related to STD

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome back.
Rough or violent masturbation was not the cause for such discharge.
As Gonorrhea and Chlamydia had been ruled out, Trichomonas infection or Mycoplasma or ureaplasma could be rare causes for thin discharge per genitals in a male.
Scrotal rashes not necessarily be related to the sexual activity. It could be due to various reasons like fungal infection, eczema, irritation, intertrigo, drug reactions etc.
Consult a Dermatologist and get cured.

Thanks for your replies, My last sexual contact was 6 weeks ago with three different woman but I used a condom for everything with all woman. Can it be caused by it? I did not notice it until yesterday, after really rough masturbation.I am also using Lotriderm Topical cream for my scrotal infection its get better for while but never goes away, as soon as I stop using the cream or wear tight underwears or temperature rises its comes back. I feel that cream also causes irritation on my glans penis. Is it possible? Please advise.

Brief Answer:
Scrotal fungal infection needs more treatment

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome back.
Your exposures were protected. So STDs are unlikely. Neither do I think the current scrotal lesion is related to protected sex.
Scrotal lesion could be due to fungal infection. So it responded to lotril. But inadequate treatment leads to relapse. You may need prolonged application along with oral antifungal antibiotics. Consult your physician for further guidance.
