Has anyone else dealt with this bullshit? I could use some advice, gonna see my GP fairly soon if I can't get it to go away. I've heard of all sorts of shit from salt water to vinegar to monistat (vagina cream for yeast infections) to monistat + vinegar. I'm curious if anyone has had this before and what they did to get rid of it because yeast bacteria are resilient little fuckers. Hey, at least I was relieved to know it wasn't herpes.   | ||

+ Show Spoiler + http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com/product/262682/Nodoro,_Prevents_and_Removes_Male_Genital_Odors_(MGO)/?prod_id=262682 Too bad the site is down now. Its active ingredient is Clotrimazole. Clotrimazole is like the active ingredient to most creams for yeast infection. | ||

If the infection persists you might get some systemic anti-fungal like diflucan. Med. student here, but I haven't done my "cock-semester" so not really sure about this stuff... | ||

EDIT: btw, just be glad you don't have a poison ivy rash (i was so scared, the tip had swelled and had a bouncy ball sized lump on it). wash you're hands before peeing if you've just been planting trees at the cottage. good life lessons...also be careful with heat rub | ||

I make sure to keep it squeaky clean under the hat now... I'm reasonably sure I got it from a girl I was seeing since my hygiene is quite good. I could be wrong though because I always use protection (still though condoms only cover so much). I've even heard that the spermicide found on condoms can encourage yeast growth so who knows. | ||

One time when I was like 14 or 15 ish a friend bet me 20 bucks I wouldn't put A535 on my dick. I'm not sure the 20 bucks was worth the 45 minutes of burning pain. Life lessons indeed. | ||

The GP is far more equipped to treat skin pathology than a urologist, even if it happens to be on your schlong. I figured the guy who has seen hundreds of cases of every variety of STD and tests people on a daily basis would be the one to go to when I woke up with a rash on my dick. Seems pretty logical to me. If I knew what it was beforehand I would have seen my GP or a dermatologist. I was assuming worst case scenario. | ||

Urology is a surgical specialty. He deals with testicular torsion, renal colic, penile fracture, etc. He probably wants to shoot himself every time some Johnny Screwsalot walks in the door with the clap. | ||

Well sorry for going to the sexual health clinic and having a urologist walk in? He obviously doesn't care too much about seeing cases of the clap if he works at that place. I didn't choose a urologist, I went to a sexual health clinic to see a "cock doc" (i.e. someone who can tell me what is on my dick) and a urologist walked out. I suppose I could have made that more clear but I don't see the point in berating me for not knowing what the red rash on my dick was and who to see about it. The guy is probably also a gynecologist since I'm reasonably sure hes in charge of the place. | ||

Yeah easy to say, but if I had a problem down there I would want the finest doctor in the land to examine me. Which in this case was the urologist (I think?) | ||

I understand the natural inclination to think this way, but it is seriously a waste of resources to go to the urologist for every problem of the penis. Your family doc (or the docs at these STD clinics) has seen all the common problems a LOT more and will be more experienced in treating them. On the off-chance (seriously, tiny tiny chance especially for skin stuff) you need see a urologist, either: 1) your family doc will capably refer you 2) you are lying in the ER in excruciating pain with your penis bent and even a blind man would know to call him. | ||

Just wondering.. seems like weird advice to tell you to soak in salty water 3 times a day and not give you any cream for it. At least the no-medication route is probably more ideal for you if it works. edit : Ah nvm i just read that u werent referred to an urologist but u went to a walk in clinic. | ||

also you should use it even after symptoms disappear for a few weeks to ensure total eradication. btw, you say your hygiene is good. yeast infections can be caused by being too clean. you need some bacteria down there to control the fungus levels. killing the bacteria allows for yeast infections such as the one you are currently suffereing from | ||

I assuming I got it from my partner. | ||

If you have condom-free sex with your partner, you can get it even before she starts showing the typical symptoms. So if you're partner tells you she has a yeast infection and you've had sex with her in the last week or so, better go get some drugs and take the 'better safe than sorry' route. I mean shit, it's your dick. | ||

Physically apply unflavored yogurt with live yogurt cultures (acidophilus) overnight. If it is in fact a yeast infection, this should clear it up in 1 day. The acidophilus pills don't work nearly as well as applying directly. | ||
