A couple of days ago I had unprotected oral sex with a prostitute and also had regular condom-protected sex, fingering, and kissing on her breasts and mouth. Since then, the tip of my penis has been itchy. It was more noticeable on the first day and got a bit better on the second day. Today, it's not so much itchy but I just have this kind of sensation. Afterward, about 15 minutes later, I used Betadine surgical scrub multiple times that day and once yesterday on that area and even some inside the tip, along with soap and water. Should I be worried and see a healthcare professional? Am I at risk for anything?

Given your situation, it's recommended that you visit a healthcare provider or a sexually transmitted infection (STI) clinic as soon as possible.
They will assess your symptoms, provide guidance on potential STIs, and recommend testing and treatment options.
Some possible concerns include:
- STIs: Such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, or herpes.
- Skin irritation: Allergic reactions or irritation from the Betadine scrub or soap.
- Other infections: Like yeast infections or bacterial vaginosis.
Don't hesitate to reach out to a healthcare provider. They will help you address any potential issues and provide peace of mind.

I've noticed a lump on the skin of my penis shaft that just appeared out of nowhere. It's not painful or itchy, which is a relief, but I'm a bit worried about what it could mean. I haven't done anything that might have caused it, except maybe I masturbated about 23 days ago. Any idea what this could be? Should I be concerned?

I'm wondering if it's a good idea to switch between using Procapil and Redensyl on alternate mornings and then applying minoxidil every night? Also, are there any products that combine these ingredients, or are there other alternatives like Baicapil or Anagain that could give the best results? My dermatologist had me using Redensyl in the morning and minoxidil at night, before that it was Procapil, and both seemed to work well.
