General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
What lesions you could be having may just an infection of skin on the penis. However, since you have history of having intercourse with sex worker, it could be sexually transmitted infection.
Hence you can take the following general measures in the meantime.
1. Wash the area with warm water using mild antiseptic like Savlon twice daily.
2. Apply Neomycin skin cream on the lesion after drying.
3. Take antiinflammatory medication Ibuprofen after food.
You need to get tested for HIV status and VDRL tests and consult Skin and STD specialist with reports for appropriate evaluation and treatment.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
