I've been having some issues after having unprotected sex about 3 months ago. My penis is looking a bit shiny and there's this itching, plus sometimes it burns a bit when I touch the foreskin. Im getting pretty worried. I want to get tested for all STDs and STIs in Kolkata. Can you point me in the right direction for this?

visit your nearest STD clinic or you can visit Dermatologist where you get yourself tested and exact STD kit for the disease would resolve this. It is curable no need to worry, visit Dermatologist as soon as possible

I'm having this issue where every time I get an erection or after having sex, my penis seems to crack at one particular spot. It heals after a few days, but then it just happens again the next time. Is there any cream or solution I could use to prevent this from happening?

The recurring cracks on your penis, particularly in one position, during or after erection, may be caused by a condition called penile fissures, which can be painful and may lead to bleeding or infection; applying a topical cream or ointment, such as petroleum jelly, aloe vera gel, or a fragrance-free lubricant, may help soothe and protect the affected area
