Hi everyone,
Since December last year my penis suddenly started to burn regularly. I initially noticed a small red irritation under my foreskin, then the following day the corona gland (the base under the foreskin) became a darker, purpler color and has remained that way ever since.
Other than burning, the symptoms include the occasional break out of redness on the gland, purpleness after ejaculation, difficulties getting erections, generally feeling less aroused, and slow ejaculation-my sperm kind of oozes out rather than spray. It has ruined my sex life and my everyday life and I don't know what to do. It also appears as if my penis has swollen a bit and that the veins on it stick out more.
I've already seen two urologists who've been unable to diagnose my condition. I've tried balanil, canesten, vea cream, and vitamin E and none of them have really helped to ease the condition. Balanil helped slightly with the burning but after a month of using it the general symptoms failed to go away.
I'm not sure what caused this. It happened roughly after a week after I had my first COVID-19 vaccine, though that could just be a coincidence. It's also worth mentioning that I am married and am faithful to my wife, who tested negative for vaginal infections.
I am writing this message out of desperation and hoping to find an answer perhaps through other people who have experienced something similar. This condition is ruining my life and nobody seems to have an answer.
