Hello Thanks for query. Redness of glans penis with itching and discharge from the penis after unprotected sex with unknown woman is most likely to be due to STD.
Please get following basic tests done to rule out/confirm acquiring STD or HIV 1) Swab Test and culture of a discharge from penis . 2) Routine urine test and urine culture . 3) Basic screening tests for STD 4) Blood test for HIV to be repeated after 3 months .
In the mean while start taking antibiotic like Erythromycin twice daily with anti inflammatory medication like Diclofenac twice daily .
Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily,
Ensure to avoid sexual encounters till it heals up completely.
