View allI've been getting these red dots on the head of my penis after having sex or masturbating and it's starting to hurt when I try to pull back the foreskin, especially around the frenulum. The weird thing is, if I don't do anything for about 45 days, the dots go away. I went to a dermatologist who said it might be a fungal issue and gave me an antifungal cream, but it's been a month and nothing's changed. I've tested negative for HIV. Any idea what this could be and how I might treat it?
Since the anti-fungal cream prescribed by the dermatologist did not resolve the issue, it may be worth considering a different approach. I recommend trying a combination of antibiotic and steroid cream to address any possible bacterial or inflammatory component of the condition. You can apply a combination of Mupirocin ointment (2%) and Hydrocortisone cream (1%) twice daily on the affected area for 7-10 days. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, including gently washing the penis with warm water and mild soap, and ensuring proper drying of the area after bathing, can help prevent recurrence

I'm dealing with HSV 1 and found out I'm IgG positive. Since I've had this infection before and it's now latent, could I still pass it on to someone else through oral contact even when I don't have active symptoms?

I'm thinking about starting to use cgro serum like one of the TV dermatologist recommends, but I'm already using minoxidil 10. Is it okay to use both together? I've been worried about any possible side effects or interactions between them. Has anyone seen good results using this combo, or should I be cautious about trying it out?
