Hello,

As per my surgical experience, the issue of itchy and painful lesions on penis with involvement of wife might be concerned with Herpes simplex lesion most likely. However, a Chlamydia infection is also a differential diagnosis of common concern. My guidelines at present:
- Intramuscular shot of penicillin for both partners
- Oral azithromycin for you
- Antihistamine as cetirizine for both
- Your wife can use local application of Miconazole (2%) cream over genital lesion
- Strictly avoid any type of sexual relationship (even protected one as well)
- Discuss need of additional particular medications, anti viral, antibiotic or anti fungal with your treating doc during your scheduled visit

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
