Uncircumcised Penis Has Itching, Red Spots, Pimple Like Sore, Burning Sensation After Unprotected Sex. Sounds Like Syphilis?

Hi,

I have had unprotected sex about 3 weeks ago. (note: I am uncircumcised)

I noticed that my penis was itchy and had multiple red spots on the head of the penis. After a few days, the spots went away and then I noticed one very pimple-like sore appear on the tip of my foreskin.

There has been a burning sensation whenever urinating, and the pimple had some white puss coming out of it (like any other pimple).

I have already scheduled an appointment with a doctor this Friday, but I also want another doctor's opinion. It sounds like it could be syphilis or a "common" infection. Thoughts?

Hi,

It sounds everything, but physical examination would determine it better.

When talking to your doctor, after finishing the first treatment, ask him to schedule a date for circumcision.

Have always protected sex, urinate right after voiding and keep your organ clean.

All the best!
