Me and my boyfriend are concerned.

I am having a wide range of symptoms...but the doctor's can't seem to figure out what is wrong. So I will list my symptoms here in hopes of hearing some good news.

1) Beginning of January I began to notice a rash the started on the corona and extended to the head (glands) of my penis. I am circumcised. These bumps also scatter throughout the entire head and sometimes get red and swollen. The urologist said that this is normal, yet I find that hard to believe. Also, some of these "bumps" turn pimple like and white sometimes. Still, the doctor says this is normal. :/

2) The skin on my penis began to flake off and peel, almost as if it were sunburned. Doctor prescribed me Ketacanazole cream, which relieved the peeling, but didn't stop the itch I had acquired.

3) My testicles began to itch extremely bad...like ridiculously. I knew I had a fungus, but the doctor said the ketacanzole will help that as well. (Nothing yet)

4) The skin on my glans penis began to be very very scaly, and rough..and shiny, about to crack almost. Also, my urethra became inflamed and red and hurts to the touch, and a small sore developed next to it. It was all tested for herpes...NEGATIVE TEST RESULTS...The ketacanzole did however rid of this texture on the glands penis.

5) Developed a small pimple like bump on my perinea (are between testicles and anus)...which went away but I can still feel sensation there every now and again.

6) Sometimes my testicles get shiny and almost leathery looking. ;/

7) Was diagnosed with Blastocitis Hominis (Intestinal Parasite) and will start medication for that soon.

8) New doctor said she doesn't think this is a fungus at all, better yet just an irritation. She has given me Hydrocortizone cream which relieves the itchy testicles, but does nothing about the redness and irritation of the testicles or urethra.

Please someone help me...I can't go on with the diagnoses of this being (normal) because it most definitely is not.

You don't have a std. Do to dermatology forum. Anxiety is a mental stressor.

Does this sound like anything contagious...we have not had sex yet because of the worry from this...but once we do, we will definitely use a condom for anal sex...but what about oral?

If you have negative tests then it can't be a STD.

To ask the Dr's a question it is a pay to post.

You have said you have tested for STD's and negative...why are you posting in a STD forum? Try posting in dermotology.
