Hi doctor, I am 24 years old man. These pink or red patches grew on the skin of my penis about 5 to 6 weeks before. Not itchy especially and no pain. HBC, HCV, HIV1-2, Lues are negative. What could be these?
Hi. It seems like a fungal infection but that is itchy. Have you applied any medication over it? Yes, skin is very dry. Is your skin dry all over the body? If your skin is dry all over, it can be due to your thyroid problem. I will suggest if you can do scraping for fungus. It will confirm your diagnosis. Other possibilities can be annular lichen planus, psoriasiform lesions, but do not worry. Nothing is to be afraid of. You will get better soon. Tinea cruris, eczema, annular lichen planus, psorasis. Tinea. Apply combination of Hydrocortisone plus Isoconazole cream (like Hydrozole) BD. Apply Petroleum jelly 4 to 5 times a day. Maintain hygiene of area, wash with soap and water. Avoid using Dettol and other irritants.
