Could Red Rashes On Penis Head After Having Sex Be Due To Fungal Infection?
Hi,
I have a red rash on my penis head. After sex with my girlfriend it sometimes appears.
She has a fungus/bacteria build up and can it be passed on to me?
Or is it an allergy to washing powders?
We have been together for 5 years and its only appeared within last year.
Thank you

Hi,
From history it seems that you got infected with fungal infection spread through sex.
Apply anti-fungal cream locally.
Go for oral anti-fungal treatment like Flucanozole 150 mg once in a week for 4 weeks.
Take the treatment both partners.
Keep local part clean, dry and airy.
Ok and take care.
