Have Itching Around The Crown Of The Penis. Have Been Applying Cortizone. Can It Be A ST Disease?

Hello
Around the crown of my penis seems to be itching. I've noticed a slight whitish stuff around the head as well. I was wondering if men can get a yeast infection after having sex with a women who has it and didn't know. Cause my girl seems to have slight discomfort/irritation in her vagina. I also put some Cortizone 10 around my penis.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.Itching around the bulb of penis may be due to many reasons including poor cleanliness to yeast infection.
Many people think that they are very clean but on examination some might not have retracted their foreskin adequately and cleaned.
If it is due to yeast infection then your girl friend also to be treated. Otherwise you will have the problem remained after every intercourse. Remains of white stuff may be present in both condition like poor cleanliness and also in yeast infection.

Consult your physician and get well soon.
