Rash On Penis, Sore. Believes To Be From Poison Ivy. How To Proceed Further?
Hello, my husband and I have been apart for almost 5 months. He is about to return home and told me that he has a rash on his penis. He believes it is from poison ivy. He said it formed sores and they have opened up. The rash has lasted about 2-3weeks. He has not had it looked at. I am concerned one about his health and clearing this up and two being sure this is not an std. How should we proceed?

The only way is to convince him to see a dermatologist who can diagnose it accurately and further complete treatment can be planned.
