I have been experiencing itching on my penis for more than three weeks, without any pain during urination. On November 1st, I had sexual contact with my girlfriend and developed red rashes on my body and pimples on my face. I consulted a dermatologist, who advised HIV and VDRL tests, both results were negative. I took some liver supporting medication for a few days, which cleared most of the rashes except on my hips. However, on December 29th, I noticed white patches on my penile foreskin. I am unsure whether this is related to a skin issue, indigestion, or something else. I have also shared a picture of the foreskin for reference. Could you please help me understand what this might be and which doctor I should consult?

Itching and white patches on the penis may result from fungal infection or dermatitis. Since HIV and VDRL are negative, a skin specialist (dermatologist) can evaluate further. Personal hygiene and avoiding irritants are important.

Hi, my wife has been having a urine infection for the last 2 to 3 days, and the burning sensation is not subsiding. We started her on Alkasol, and she took 2 to 3 doses, but the burning sometimes improves and sometimes comes back. A week ago, she had a severe throat infection for which she took antibiotics and cold medicines after consulting a doctor. During that time, we did almost all tests, including urine culture, urine routine, CBC, and dengue profile, but almost everything was negative, except a slight positive result in urine routine, and the culture was normal. Please advise what to do now?

Hi Doctor, during my 19th week of pregnancy, my urine test report showed blood detected in the urine. Is this something to be concerned about?
