What Causes Pain/itching At The Opening Of Penis?

Hi, Since more than six months I am having this pain at the opening of my penis (where the urine comes out from) and iching and dryness at the ring where penis head is joined with rest of it (the place where the foreskin rests when retracted). It feels like some nerve or veins has dried up at this ring and putting pressure. I feel the pressure more while sitting. I have been tested for STI and reports are clear. I have also taken medicines to treat UTI (bacstol and flotral) and fungal infection with no result. Could you please help as regards identifying the desease and possible treatment. Also, whom should I in terms of medical specialists. Does lower back or muscle spasm have any co-relation?

You are probably suffering from a condition of inflammation of your head of penis and inflammation of foreskin. It is known as balanoposthitis. Try to find out what exactly is the reason for this condition. Find out if it is bacterial in nature or fungal? Also see to it if you have allergy to condom or any soap or cream you use.
Consult a dermatologist and s/he will do the needful, and you will be alright.
