Question 1

I'm feeling really concerned about some symptoms. Is it possible for a burning sensation in the penis to be an initial symptom of HIV, even if I don't have any fever or other symptoms?

Accepted Answer

Initial symptoms of HIV can vary, but common ones include flu-like symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and body aches, while penis burning or urethral discharge can be symptoms of other conditions like urinary tract infections (UTIs) or sexually transmitted infections (STIs); however, some people with acute HIV infection may experience genital or anal ulcers, or urethral discharge, so if you're concerned, consult a healthcare provider for testing and evaluation.

Accepted Answer

You may be experiencing a condition known as hand eczema, which can be exacerbated by psoriasis. To help with the dryness, cracking, and discomfort, I recommend using a prescription-strength corticosteroid cream like Clobetasol (0.05%) twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, you can use a moisturizer like Cetaphil Restoraderm lotion multiple times a day to keep your skin hydrated. Make sure to protect your hands from harsh chemicals and wear gloves when doing any tasks that involve getting your hands wet. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
