Why Do I Have A Sore On The Penis Head?

I have a sore on the top of my penis, I mean on the head of the penis, and it s not on the skin, it s on the inside too. I saw a doctor and he gave medicine, but it didn t get better. Even though he has been using the medicine given by the doctor for a week, he has not been cured. Sir, I am very worried because of this. And which medicine good can you tell me i will use that medicine....

Hello,

You are advised to get clinically examined by a GP or a urologist. You are suggested to get STD tests done as your symptoms may be indicative of sexually transmitted infections like herpes, chancroid, syphilis, etc. If STD tests come positive, you will be treated with antibiotics and antivirals.

For relief, you can apply ointment Acyclovir on the area affected. Take care of your hygiene and wear soft cotton clothes. Avoid any type of sexual activity or self-pleasuring. Get assessed so that the pathology is diagnosed, and specific treatment can be given. Avoid unprotected sex and multiple partners.

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

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
