Could The Penis Glans Spot After Intercourse Be Due To STD?
This is gonna sound like a really strange question, but can an STD manifest itself after almost 9 years? Here is why I ask. Just over 8 1/2 years ago I had unprotected sex once with a woman I knew very well. She had just come out of a very long relationship but I believe she had about 7 partners up to the time we got together. As far as I knew she did not have anything. Anyway we had unprotected sex once, and that was it. I changed jobs the following week and I have not seen her since. During the following 8 years I have not had anything wrong with me health wise and no problems with my penis. I am now happily married and last week my wife and I had sex (unprotected) and 1 day later I developed a small (3.5mm) red 'spot' or 'mark' on the top head (glans) of my penis. It has not grown, it is flat, it does not hurt, itch or discharge anything and the skin is like the rest of my glans (only red). I wondered if I may have a slight abrasion as my wife was wearing pantyhose. However I also started thinking if it could be something to do with my one (and only) unprotected sexual encounter other than my wife. I know without a doubt that my wife does not have an STD as she was a virgin before we met and I know from her character that she would not be unfaithful. I would happily bet my life on it. Any ideas? I am really unsure as to what this red mark/spot could be.
Hello. Thank you for writing to us at healthcaremagic
I have gone through your query and I wanted to know really whether you were tested for STD's after your sexual contact 9 years ago. It would be a good thing to screen for all STD's if it was 'nt done then. STD's can remain clinically silent but it is very unlikely that they would manifest for the first time after 9 years Your present skin condition too does not sound like an STD. The spots could be either due to a mild candidal balanitis Or most likely due to friction/trauma. I would suggest you to try an OTC topical antifungal e.g clotrimazole 1% cream, locally for a few days. If the condition does'nt resolve as expected in 3-5 days you may review it with a dermatologist.
Regards
