Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am 36 years old, male. I am traveling and had sex two weeks ago without condom. After two days, I felt itching and pain while peeing. Now, two weeks later, I have white painful wound on my penis. I visited a doctor yesterday and received an injection and two pills antibiotics. He said gonorreah. I am scared that he could be wrong. Please help me.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
You have developed ulcers after two weeks. Usually, in gonorrhea you will have painful white discharge from penis. In syphilis, ulcer will develop after 10 to 14 days, painless single, button like ulcer. Painful genital ulcers in this case are may be herpes simplex, chancroid, and syphilis (from your picture) (attachment removed to protect patient identity).
What medication he gave? Will you please give names of the drugs? Better do VDRL, TPHA, HIV and HSV2 investigation, smear study from penis discharge to rule out above STD.
