Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am having symptoms such as a white discharge from my penis, and it has a bad smell. I visited a physician in person and he suggested medicines for fungal infection. But I cannot find any difference after taking it for the past two days. What to do? Am I suffering from gonorrhea or any other STD (Sexually Transmitted Disease)? Kindly help me.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query and understood your concern. The white discharge usually is a fungal infection. Unhygienic condition is the cause. I suggest you to clean gently the area with soap and water. Also, I suggest you to locally apply Clotrimazole (antifungal medication) ointment two times a day. As you are concerned with STD (sexually transmitted diseases), you need an STD panel test. I hope this has helped you.

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