Hi,

1. Infection of penis that is persisting is indicative for:
- lack of success of previous infection
- a culture of pus coming from penis is recommended to determine the type of microbe causing the infection and appropriate antibiotic to fight it correctly
- apart local hygiene and medications, you should be use oral antibiotics for long time
- should avoid sexual intercourse until improvement
- if not circumcised, please discuss with urologist to get circumcision as definite treatment
- get your partner tested and treated adequately too

2. If treated correctly, it won't get again arise

3. You can continue as advised by your urologist. However, systemic/oral treatment is highly recommended

4. You can ask your physician to refer to the urologist in hospital and get a more specialized medical attention there.

Hope it was of help!
