Suggest Treatment For Itchy Blisters On The Penis

I have not had any blisters but I have redness on my penis and frequent itching. I also have burning from the tip of my penis and a foul smell. I have read that if it is a herpes outbreak there will be fluid filled blisters, which I do not have. Could this be symptoms of something else?

Hi,

These symptoms and signs are suggestive of STD especially if there is associated with pain, fever, urethral discharge and recent sexual intercourse. So this is the first thing to rule out by doing STD testing. Second, it may be a sign of uroinfection or urinary stones and some other genital infection but this is less common. In every case, antibiotic therapy may be required so the test should be done as soon as possible so that appropriate treatment can be started. Till that try to drink plenty of fluids, avoid sexual intercourse and rest.

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

Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
