Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have had acne kind of lesions on my penis since last week. I have three to four sexual relationships without protection. I am very tensed. Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern and would be happy to help. I suggest the below treatment plan. Take Tablet Doxycycline 100 mg once a day after food for five days. Use Permite BB soap (Permethrin) for two months. Use Fucibet cream (Betamethasone and Fusidic Acid) to be applied during the daytime for ten days. Consult a specialist doctor, talk to him or her, and start the treatment. Also, I suggest you practice safe sex, use barriers, avoid stress and stay relaxed. Do you have fever, itching or burning sensation of the penis, increased urinary frequency, dysuria, or hazy urine? Kindly revert with answers to the above questions. Thank you.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Thank you for the response. The acne were burning when I was having sex today. I had fever last weekend for which I took tablet Paracetamol. I have itching in my private area. Also, I do not have an increase in urination or pain, and the color of my urine is yellow.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

The condition is balanitis xerotica obliterans. I suggest the below treatment plan. Use Cream Hydrocortisone 1 % to be applied at night for 15 days. Use Cream Fusidic acid to be applied during the daytime for seven days. Take Tablet Loratidine 10 mg once after breakfast for ten days. Consult a specialist doctor, talk to him or her, and start the treatment. I hope this helps. Thank you.
