Itch Foreskin Please Help!
Posted: 04-29-05 13:21pm

Hi all,

first of all, I am uncircumcised. A week ago I noticed my foreskin itches a little. When I pull my foreskin back there was a little pain and I see a few small red spots on my glans and the front end of my foreskin itches pretty bad. I looked up webmd and the symptons fits the description of balanitis. I have tried anti-fungal cream (lamisil) for a week now and it is still not getting better. I don't think it's std because I have a single partner.


I have considered going to the doctor's but
1. I am embrassed
2. I am uninsured being a poor college student (community college, they don't provide student heath insurance).

Any information is appreciated, thanks.

Yeah, it might be embarassing, but I would definately go to the doctor anyway. If you don't have insurance go to a clinic. They base it all on income, so it is way cheaper. Good luck.
