Hi. I m a 24 yeah old male and have been experiencing a rather weird symptom recently. I had this really uncomfortable feeling on the shaft of my genital one day, but thought I could might be a rash from wearing a new pair of jeans I bought on the same day. But the next morning I noticed a small pimple right at the out end of urethra. I didn t know what to do, as something like this had never happened to me before. I popped it open and this white liquid came out as one would normally see from popping a pimple. Then I got this sort of bloody mark on the spot I just had squeezed the pimple out, which I still have after 3-4 days. The bloody mark though left a scab which had covered the area I had pimple, then now it s half gone. The problem I m concerned is that the whole area still hurts when I touch, as if it s inflamed, although it doesn t hurt when I urinate. The area I have this scab is now a little drier than other area and . I ve only had sex with my current partner for years and cannot recall any memory that would suggest I might have an STD. Should I be worried in this case? I just wanted to check...
HelloThanks for query. Based on the facts that you have posted you seem to have boil near external urinary meats which you popped out, and now it has transformed in to a raw area covered with painful scab. This is most likely to be due to bacterial infection of a per urethral gland . Get swab tests and culture of a discharge from the lesion done to confirm the causative organisms and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern. This will help to rule out STD. Start taking antibiotics like Erythromycin and anti-inflammatory medication like Diclofenac twice daily with topical antibiotic ointment Newsprint for local application later on switch on to appropriate antibiotic as per culture report. Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily. Ensure to avoid sexual encounters till it heals up completely. Chat Doctor. .
