Suggest Treatment For Irritation And Redness On Tip Of The Penis

The tip of my penis is irritated and red from rubbing on my underwear at work all day as well as my urethra itching from the tip to about halfway down although there is no burning sensation when I urinate or anything of that nature.... I am extremely worried about it though. Could you please help?

Hi


I had gone through your query.

it seems like urinary track infection or local infection around genitalias.

Chances of fungal infections are more in area around penis.

Bacterial infection cause burning sensation in urine.

urine examination will give more idea about infection.

Local examination is necessary to diagnose fungal infection.

Consult physician and dermatologist for better assistance.

Drink much fluid and water to reduce burning sensation.

Medicines like anti fungal and antibiotic can help but require proper consultation before taking any medicines.


Still if you have query then feel free to ask.

Get well soon.

Thank you.
