What Is The Cause For The Redness On The Head Of My Penis And The Burning Sensation On Urethra?
In October I received oral from a girl that's never given oral before and has only had one partner and she was his first. About a week or two later I've noticed the head of my penis is a little red and my urethra burns sometimes. I've also noticed some itching on my testicles and my groin/upper thigh. Could this be herpes?! I was tested in December for gonorrhea syphillis and clamydia, thay all were negative. My doctor wants to test again for clamydia but I'm convinced it's not it. I'm not sure though. This hasn't ever gone away it's been happening since my encounter. I'm still a virgin I've only received oral. She had no signs of a cold sore and I've never seen her with one. What is this? PLEASE HELP IM FREAKING OUT
Hi, Welcome to HCM. Oral sex carries a very less risk for both HIV and STD.
Herpes simplex infection will have the eruption of multiple tiny vesicles going into multiple tiny grouped ulceration. This is a self limiting disease and will heal even without specific treatment within two weeks in a normal immuno-competent individual. Uniform redness of penis and burning urethra are not symptoms and signs for Herpes. Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and Syphilis through oral sex is extremely rare. Yeast infection is quite possible following a oral sex as yeast a commonly present in saliva or mouth cavity in many people. It can be easily confirmed with some investigations and can be treated with anti-fungal antibiotic creams and if necessary oral anti-fungal tablets. Drinking plenty of water will improve the burning sensation of urethra. Simple urine examination will reveal if any pathology in urethra is there or not. Get well soon. Dr S.Murugan
