Red raw area with uncomfortable feeling on penis.

Resolved Question:

for the last week or so I've had a uncomfortable feeling on/in my penis area. Sometimes it is a dull pain. Other times it feels like it is "raw" it's a LITTLE red sometimes also. My doctor took a urine sample and said the was a sign of infection and put me on cipro for ten days. I'm not a doctor but I'd bet I didn't have a infection. 3 minutes before the doctor saw me nurse tells me urine was normal But anyway , what do you think could possibly cause my syptoms? I've been checked for STD and I don't have any.

Hello,
It depends on whether it is bacterial or fungal.
A look at the lesion will help me understand what kind of an infection it is.
Can you kindly upload an image?
Do not worry, it can be treated with oral medication.
Regards.

You seem to be having local infection. You should take t. Fluconazole 150 mg once daily for 5 days and apply antifungal cream locally twice daily for 3 weeks under the care of your doctor.

Take care
