What Causes Fluid Filled Blisters Under Foreskin?

default
Posted on Thu, 18 Feb 2016
Question: Hi there.

A couple of days ago i had a slight discomfort at the head of my penis. So i pulled back the foreskin past the head, only to find tiny fluid bubbles under the foreskin with some slight swelling.

I do not sleep around, so i can confirm it is not STI. I also have very good hygiene. Are you able to give any insight into what this may be? And how i can overcome it?

Thank-you

Can you upload an image fo rreview?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this this discomfort that you have reported.I will like to see what the nature of the head of your penis is by you uploading an image to me. This way, your response would be personalized with helpful tips on how to over come this. With this description and your sexual life, personal hygiene and these symptoms, an infection is very unlikely. This could be due to irritation related to increased temperatures or thick underwear. Continue cleansing and keep it airy. This is enough to help with healing. when the images come in, I will also provide more insights about this.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.

As you can see, the bubbles aren't actually on the head - but just below, when i pull back the foreskin. There is also a patch of swelling in that area.

I hope this help you. So you're saying just to keep the region more aired? How long does this usually take to recover?

Brief Answer:
This seems to be sift tissue infections!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

This looks like small bacterial infections like minor pustules on the surface of the skin. I will like that you get this penis examined. you may need antibiotics for this. also, put an eye on these spots as they may progress to containing fluids which need to be expressed.

Keep me posted on this!
