dry skin after clymydia

ok heres my porblem i was treated for clymydia and now its been two weeks since i have been off the medication. I dont know whats going on my penis head is dicolored and dry, the dicoloration and dryness come and go but it never looks how it used to. today it is very dry and scaley looking. Ive gone to the doctor but they said it could just be from the antibiotics. other symptoms im having are a redness around my pee hole. and discomfort when i urinate sometimes, also some urine leakage after i go to the restroom it feels like not everything came out and i sit down a few minutes later and a small amount will come out. Has anyone thats had clymydia expierience this? Is it possible i have a yeast infection i heard this is not common among men though what else could be going on. Anyone please help.

Re: dry skin after clymydia

Hi, I am having almost the same problem as you, I was treated for chlamydia even though we're not sure what it actually is, did you have white discharge? were you involved in any risky sexual activities?

I think mine started because I started masturbating with some lube without washing it away at night.

Avron what are your symptoms? I also noticed that i seemed to have been getting better until i masterbated. What medications were you given and did they test you for clamydia? I'd like to talk to you more write back please

Hi mark,

Here's my story, I have only been involved with one girl which I had sex, she was a virgin however she did have UTI every now and then, anyway, we broke up not long ago and I got 'unlucky' and received a handjob from a highrisk person which worried the heck out of me, even after the doctors assuring me that you can't get anything from a handjob if you are the reciever, anyhow, I woke up one morning with swollen foreskin after a period of rough masturbation, the swell went away, everything seemed to go fine until I got drunk one night and decided not to go to the toilet but sleep instead with a full bladder, I woke up the next morning with terrible burning sensation and discomfort, especially after I urinate!

I went to the doctor, did a urine test, the results came back as 'indeterminate' regarding the presence of the chlamydia bacteria in my urine, so anyway, the doctor said we'll assume it's chlamydia and gave me doxycycline, I took the doxycycline for about four days and then had to quit because I developed allergic reactions towards it, then he gave me zithromax(one dose) which made me feel better for two days, but by that time, I realized my penis' color didn't look normal anymore.

the skin started to look 'dry' and discolored in a way, more wrinkly and a bit of inflammation in the opening of the penis, I stopped masturbating for a month, started taking urals and drinking a lot of water, this seemed to help a bit, especially the ural, I did another urine test few days ago and it came back as negatives and normal results, however I still do experience the burning sensation and the discomfort after I urinate and when I hold it for a while.

anyway the color of my penis seemed to have improved ever since I stopped the antibiotics.

I'd like to know how you got your chlamydia and were you POSITIVE that you had chlamydia? as in, did you have discharge and all of that? because I didn't.

Re: dry skin after clymydia

Hey well my deal is i did have clymydia i took doxycycline and that seemed to make the burning and drip go away. Then after i finished the medication i started having similiar siymptoms again i then was given zithromax too. Again nothing really changed i seemed to get better then the after a week after i was given the zythromax i had the dryness and discoloration increasing and burning when i pee im also having a problem of a small amount of urine leaking out after i few minutes after i pee. I went to my doctor last week and got tested for clymydia again, i will get those results back today. the doctor thinkis i may possibly have a yeast infection ive been using Lotrimin for that and it seems to make the dryness go away but the discoloration is still there. What you may have had is NGU if you never came back with a positive clymydia test which is basically an infection of the urethra thats what they thought i had at first and you can get NGU other than just sexually. I know i definentely had clymydia i got it from having unprotected sex with two girls one night, not even sure which one gave me it. Pretty horrible got drunk and forgot about being safe. How long did it take for your discoloration to go away? And what exactly are urals. I also noticed after masterbation my symptoms get worse. I drink nothing but water and juices now and that helps wth the burning. I just want to find out how to get better this has been going on since the begining of Feburary. Any way write back
