Have Red Bumps On Penis Head. Applied Anti-fungal Medicine. Skin Dry And Peeling. Sensitive. Advice?

Hi. I developed red bumps on my penis head and applied anti fungal medicine for a week, which is when the infection went away. However, a few days after that, the membrane on the penis head (on the gland, NOT the foreskin) started becoming dry and peeling off. Now the condition is that most of the membrane has peeled off, leaving red area that is painfully sensitive to any touch. Same peeling hapened all over the shaft also. I have been applying neosporin and vaseline for a few days now, but need some advice.. please help..!! I have been going steady with my girlfriend for 2 years now, so its not an STD. HELP....

Hi,
It seems that along with fungal infection there is super added bacterial infection due to itching as well.
You may require oral antibiotic and anti-fungal medicines.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Continue with antibiotic cream and Vaseline application after proper cleaning part.
Keep local part healthy andairy.
Ok and bye.
