Probably a fungal infection!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Am so sorry to hear about these cuts your husband has, Given all the information you have provided including that from previous questions, he probably has a fungal infection. I will suggest that he gets clotrimazole cream fro treatment. He should apply it daily for 10-14days. Do well to report his progress to me.

I wish him a speedy recovery. Keep me posted!

So how long should we wait for intercourse?

Brief Answer:
until the cuts are fully healed!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I will say as long as it takes the wounds to heal. This shouldn’t be more than 10days. However, this doesn’t stop you from having other form of sexual acts like romance, etc.

Keep me posted with his progress. I wish you well.
