Patient's question:
Before drinking alcohol, I had an unprotected masturbation session, but I wore a condom throughout. The condom was not rusty or peeling. I'm very worried about getting a sexually transmitted disease, such as HIV, syphilis, gonorrhea, or genital warts. I'm so regretful. Sigh, I'm very concerned about infecting my wife and children. I'm always agitated, and I lack the energy to work or even survive. I hope a professional doctor can provide a definitive diagnosis and recommend some over-the-counter topical and oral medications that can completely cure the condition. I'm in urgent need of help, and I would be deeply grateful!History of Treatment and Effects:
One and a half months ago, I noticed scaling on the lower edge of the glans, the inner side of the foreskin, and the corona of the penis. The glans is dry and wrinkled, as if covered with a plastic film. During erection, it becomes red and shiny. When scratching the scaling with my hands, it sometimes breaks the skin in a few places, but there is no bleeding or odor. The urethral opening has no discharge, redness, or swelling, and no abnormal growths have appeared.
