Suggest Treatment For Mouth Ulcers

Hi, I am a 43 year old male but appear to have an NSGU. It was diagnosed as an ulcer and treated with dental paste. My first symptom was actually excruciating pain while urinatinating, and my Doctor didn t make any connection and has not appeared to have understood the condition. I was treated with several different trypes of antibiotics while results were pending but of course uktimately STDs etc were ruled out...which I d always been sure couldn t be the cause. Everything I can find on the web tends to refer to NSGUs in women, but as an uncircumcised male I know it could increase my chances of this or similar. The ulcer itself has been treated with a prescription dental paste and has improved somewhat. The pain in urination has almost gone at this point, a week after symptoms presented themselves. However, the reason I am writing is, while the oval ulcer itself appears to have improved, the skin around it on my glans now appears red, raised and irritated. I still have discomfort in that area but have started to feel a flight urge to scratch (which would hurt like anything!) which can usually be a sign of a wound healing. My question is, is it normal for a healing ulcer to affect the area around it? Could this just be increased blood flow? Obviously any anomaly on my glans is concerning, but I m so keen for this nightmare to be over...

Ulcers do have there origin from bactria, virus and even fungus. Most of them are self limiting and heal with time. Non specifc Ulcers are difficult entities and if they are perisistent would require further investigation. first of all kindly mention the medication you are on presenty and also update us with your current medical status.
