What Causes Sensitivity Ans Soreness On Head Of Penis?
treatment would depend on the cause
Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome
I appreciate your concern
Sensitivity and soreness of the penis has to be assessed with respect to the cause.
Friction due to prolonged or frequent sex and/or masturbation can lead to it and may just require abstinence for a few days.
Allergies to some condoms or clothing may be the cause and a change in condom brand and wearing loose cotton clothes may also help.
It could also be due to a yeast/candida/fungal infection or a UTI and consultation with a GUM (GenitoUrinaryMedicine) clinic to treat for one or both can be done. I would also advise you for fasting blood sugar and HBA1C to rule out diabetes which can also be a factor.
Proper hygiene , washing the penis thoroughly , using a hypo allergenic soap and applying proper lubrication should also be some measures that would help.
As there aren't any visible lesions , STDs chance is minimal, but you should still get a physical examination done at the GUM clinic to be sure.
Wishing you best of health
Thanks

Detailed Answer:
hi,
workup for an infection eg a UTI or fungal infection would still be valid even if its not a superficial skin lesion, as the epithelial inner surfaces of the urethra can also be involved.
I would advise you to consult a urologist to rule out urethral strictures or any other lesion lining the urethra. Assessment for urethroscopy and/or biopsy may also be done if the cause cant be ascertained.
Thanks.
