Itching white spots inside foreskin after oral
Posted: 06-05-08 19:14pm

If I can remember right, just a day or two after I received oral the end of my penis started to itch and has been itching since for 3-4 days now. When retracting the foreskin and cleaning I found two white spots under the foreskin near the opening, around where the itching is on the penis. The girl who gave me oral said she had been sick at the time with some kind of cold or something so I'm thinking it's something that came from the bacteria. I saw somewhere where a guy had a similar problem and two people mentioned urethritis. Anyone else think this is the case? Thanks.

Note: I'm uncircumcised. At first there was a slight burning while urinating but I can barely notice it anymore. The white spots I can sorta wipe away but there is still a white outline left over from where it was and the patch of skin is red where the white spot used to be. I don't necessarily think the spots are a discharge just because they can be wiped away.

Do you have red patchy sores near the head of the penis or on the foreskin, severe itching, and/or a burning sensation?

No red patches, but pretty bad itching and moderate burning when urinating.

Is the burning associated with discharge from your penis?
Have you noticed that you need to urinate more frequently?

Genital herpes, can be, indeed, transmitted by oral sex, but, its signs and symptoms, usually occur within two weeks after the virus is transmitted.
Have you got an outbreak of sores accompanied with flu-like symptoms in a mean time?

The symptoms you have mentioned in your previous posts are due to an inflammation of the glans penis and the foreskin, known as balanitis.
There is a wide variety of causes and predisposing factors for this condition.
The most common cause of balanitis is fungal infection with Candida albicans (it is generally sexually acquired although carriage of yeasts on the penis is common)
Actually, this inflammation results from an overgrowth of these fungi which are normally present on the skin of the glans, most commonly in men who have not been circumcised (the environment under the foreskin is warm and moist, and these conditions often favour the growth of the organisms that cause balanitis; moisture is allowed to persist under the foreskin for a while, if you have not washed for a couple of days or after sexual activity:vaginal, oral or anal - with or without a condom).
Burning and itching of the penis with generalized redness and swelling of glans penis and white discharge are symptoms of balanitis. This can be also accompanied with symptoms of urethritis (burning sensation while urinating, frequent urination)
In rare cases, herpes virus can be the reason for developing balanitis and urethritis.
