Rash on Penis - Sexually Transmitted Diseases Message Board

Hi:

This morning I've found that I have a red rash area on my testicles/penis. It's itching and feels a bit slimy.

I was with a girl who said she had and treated clymidia a few years ago (about two weeks ago) - My condom broke when I was with her, so I was bare for a moment.

The area is red and smooth...not any lumps, scabs or blisters that I can tell.

In addition, I seem to have blood in my stool. I do often go to the bathroom and probably strain a bunch- I eat quite a bit of spicy foods too (as of the past couple of days).

What might this sound like to you? Chlamydia- herpes, nothing...?

Thanks!

Get thee to a doctor asap! It could be many things...a yeast infection, herpes, an allergic reaction...you won't know until a doctor looks at it. I don't think blood in the stool would be related to any STD's, unless maybe it is herpes, and it irritated your anus, causing a tear...

Now she told me that she had Chlamydia and was completely cured. Of course she could have been carrying something else- who knows. I am interested in knowing if a red rash on the testicles and a bit on the shaft would be indicative of Chlamydia or a more general type of Herpes.

I don't see a rash listed on the Chlamydia symptoms lists. A few articles mention a red rash for general herpes- but most usually list open 'sores' rather than a 'rash'.

I have an appointment for the day after tomorrow.

Also, is it true that Chlamydia can be completely cured?

Thanks Again-

One more thing. I was using new condoms with spermicidal lubricant...I hadn't ever used them before- the rash appeared a day or so after using the condoms. Could this be a potential cause?

chlamydia can be completely cured. As well as Gonnorhea. Syphillis is 100% curable if caught early enough. HIV, HSV, Hepatitis iarent curable.
Low risk HPV (read visible warts) is believed to be innoculated from your body by the immune system after 10-36 months from last outbreak. High risk (cancer causing) is usually more persistent. Molluscum Contagiousum is cured by your body.

If you have chlamydia or gonnorhea, you have to take a prescription of pills to kill the virus. Maybe she didnt finish hers
