Could Burning In Penis Be The Side Effect Of Taking Amoxcixilan For Tooth Ache?

I have a question my penis is burning. Not like inside but on the outside. I have no bugs(crabs or whatever and it s not itchy). I m taking amoxcixilan for a tooth ache could this be a side affect or should I go get checked out. I have had sex recently but used a condom. Please help!

Hi
For some patient who take amoxicillin can get such side effect also.While amoxicillin destroys the bad bacteria in the body, it also destroys some of the body's good bacteria, which creates an environment more susceptible to yeast overgrowth.Another possibility is std,as you are not 100 percent protected by a condom alone.You have to rule out a condom allergy also.If you have used it several times can omit that.If there is white patchy appearance then it should be yeast infection.In such case i give clotrimazole ointment for local application.Hope this may help you.Let me Know if you have any query.
thanks
