Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My penis tip is swollen and skin is also looking different. It happened three months back. I consulted a urologist, skin specialist also, it has not reduced. I did not have any bad habits and not have any illegal relation, unmarried. Please help me. Sometimes near the tip, there is burning, irritatation and it is reducing.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

You seem to be suffering from balanitis. There are various causes for balanitis which include yeast infection (the most common cause), bacterial infections, viral infection, sexually transmitted infections, skin irritation, and allergy. I would suggest you consult a physician. You may need a short course of antibiotics.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
