Jock itch or Herpes, or what?


I have had discomfort in the genital region for two weeks now.
My penis(on the bottom of the head) is scaly and sore, and burns when I urinate.
And my anal region burns for no reason.

I have had on and off problems for the last month, and just seek advice from anyone who might have had similar problems.

I have no lesions or blisters, no heavy discharge. Just a burning feeling in both regions.

I have heard that jock itch CAN cause these symptoms, but I also worry myself into thinking its something more serious.

I plan on going to the doctor next week when I get time off work, but in the meantime does anyone have advice?

PS I'm in a long term relationship, so I'm not what you call a high risk individual.

Thanks!

Sounds like Jock Itch!

Get an anti fungal cream from the drug store.

You can avoid this in the future by showering after sweating and wearing boxers instead of briefs.

If you had Herpes, you'd have warts.

It is most likely nothing serious, just warts or something...check it out with a doctor.

Heat rash possibly, try putting some powder of some sort like baby powder to soak up extra moisture.

My husband had a similar problem. The doctor said he had
a couple of STDs. Gonohhea and Herpes.
