Are Itchy Boils And Dark Spots On The Penis A Cause For Concern?

Had a boil like pimple on my forehead fit about 3 days before it popped. Yellow pus was oozing out from it. Around the boil was quite a bit of soft tissue swelling which move down to NY left eye. This resulted in a lot of itching there. My penis also started itching about a day ago and now has dark spots around these itchy parts. I saw a doctor before my penis started itching and have been on medication for the boil and swelling and just don t know if the itching is an sheriff reaction?

Hi,

This could be due to fungal or bacterial infection so I would recommend that you apply an antibiotic ointment together with an antifungal ointment containing Nystatin every eight hours. If you are sexually active then this could be due to an STD.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
