What are the methods for treating pimples on the penis?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have some pimple-like symptoms in my pubic region. I noticed it over three weeks ago. Assuming it is just heat rashes, I have applied some soothing cream on it, but they are not fading. Kindly help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

I have gone through the images you have attached (attachments removed to protect the patient's identity). This looks like an infection and can be due to shaving.

Kindly answer the following:

Did this start with a single lesion (pimple) and then gradually increase in number??

Does this start after shaving?

Please reply to the answers to the above-asked questions so that I can guide you better.

I wish you good health.

Thank you.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

They all showed up at the same time. I do not think it was after shaving. The only key incident I can remember was when I had an erotic massage with a therapist, which involved body-on-body techniques with both of us naked. That was like one week before I noticed the appearance of the bumps.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

This is mostly an infection from that massage. I suggest you follow a few instructions mentioned below:

  1. Apply Clindamycin cream three times daily.

  2. Apply Candid B cream (antifungal) thrice daily.

  3. Wash with warm water twice daily.

Kindly consult a specialist, talk to them, and take medications with their consent.

I hope I have solved your query.

I will be happy to help you further.

I wish you good health.

Thank you.
