Is Infection Possible After Reusing A Vaginal Toy?

A couple days ago I was trying out a vaginal sex toy. I wasn t able to finish, and I looked at my penis and I had a rug burn on the side of the head. Yesterday I looked and there is a cut on the lip of my penis. Today until accidentally came in the shower and I got out and saw dry blood. I should mention that the toy was my friends and he cleaned it very thoroughly, but it s two days ago. I was wondering if this is a risk of infection, or if there is something I should do. I really don t want to tell my parents about it.

Hi,

Noted the history of your using friend's vaginal toy but got some problems as you have discussed well.
Since there was an injury there is surely a chance of infection that can be develop easily.
Hence IW ould advise you the following:
Consult a Doctor for clinical examination so that exact things can be known.
Tests of blood and urine.
Appropriate antibiotic as needed.
Local application of liquid povidone iodine can help a lot.
Take plenty of oral fluids for clear urine.
Stop worrying.
Never use such things used by others.
But yours and be assured after reading instruction on how to use and clean.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, General Surgeon
