Question
I recently had a male yeast infection. I went to the doctors and received a cream. I treated myself for over two weeks with the cream. I thought and the doctor told me the infection has gone away. Now, I am in a lot of pain. The opening on my penis is swelling up. It seems as if the hole has gotten smaller. When I pee the urine is running down the shaft of my penis. What is this?
Answer
This does not sound like a yeast infection. It may be a more serious bacterial infection. I do recommend that you see the doctor or a dermatologist again for further evaluation.
