What Causes A Pink Patch At The Tip Of The Penis?

I have a smooth light pink patch on head of my penis. It came after i used a expired condom and had sex with my wife. I also lost interest in sex suddenly after that. However i am having intercourse with my wife every day as we are planning for a baby. No symptoms at all. Used anti fungal cream and it is slowly becoming dull and mixing in. What might it could be. GP told its just fungus.

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

According to me, the lesion could be Zoon's balanitis (Plasma cell balanitis) which is due to irritation of foreskin over glans penis. You can apply Fusidic acid cream twice daily and if you do not get any improvement after a week, do consult your Dermatologist.

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