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.

Could you help me out with something? I'm 9 months pregnant and was wondering if it's safe to use Melacare cream for fairness. I used it a couple of years ago and it worked wonders on my complexion. I'm really hoping to get that glow back, especially with the changes during pregnancy and soon-to-be lactation. Is it safe to start using it again now?
Yes, continue all the medications.
