Why Do I Have Stinging Pain On The Underside Of Penis, Close To The Foreskin And Penile Glans Joint ?

Hi - I have a stinging pain on the underside of my penis, close to the join of the foreskin and penile glans. This has lasted about 5 weeks, i have treated with anti-inflamatory/steroid cream. I am 49, not over weight and generally in good health. I do have a history of candida/fungal problems.

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
This area of the genital system is very prone for infection as it is very close to the urinary system.
As you are having these symptoms for quite a while and tried some creams,but still you are having the symptoms.
As you have mentioned in the history that you had a history of fungal infection, check for any white discharge, itching and pain in that area.
I would suggest you that you requires physical examination to identify the correct problem.
You may require dermatologist opinion for further line of management.
Thank you.
