View allI'm really worried because I've had these white bumps on my penis head for like 7 or 8 months now. They tingle when I touch them, and it's freaking me out a bit. I've never had sex, so I know it's not an STD. I used to do dry masturbation by rubbing against the bed, but I've already seen a GP who checked me for STDs and UTIs and said everything's negative. He gave me some Clotrimazole cream to try for a week, but it hasn't helpedactually, it seems like its getting worse. Should I be seeing a dermatologist or a urologist for this? Any advice would be really appreciated.
It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called pearly penile papules (PPP), which are small, dome-shaped to filiform skin-colored papules that typically appear around the corona of the glans penis. PPP is a benign anatomical variant and is not considered a sexually transmitted infection. Since the Clotrimazole cream did not improve your symptoms, I recommend consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and management. You can ask your dermatologist about using topical treatments such as Podophyllotoxin cream or Tretinoin cream to help reduce the appearance of the bumps. In some cases, laser therapy may also be considered for more severe or persistent cases of PPP. It's important to follow up with a dermatologist for personalized treatment recommendations and to address any concerns you may have.

I'm really concerned about whether Candid cream is steroidal or not. Is it safe to use this for treating candidiasis? I want to make sure I'm not using something that's too strong or might cause side effects. Would love some guidance on this!
Candid cream contains Clotrimazole, which is an antifungal medication used to treat fungal infections like candidiasis. It is not a steroid cream. You can apply Candid cream topically to the affected area 2-3 times a day for effective treatment of candidiasis.
