Detailed Answer:
Hi there,

The yellow discharge coming from your penis is indicating for genital infection. I strongly suggest to culture the discharge as STDs should be ruled out first.

According to culture and sensitivity testing result, appropriate antibiotic will be prescribed. I advise to:
- get an immediate appointment with gynecologist
- keep a good hygiene of your genitalia
- avoid having sexual intercourse until improvement
- always practice safe sex

Hope it helped! Wish fast recovery!
