Hello,
A few weeks ago i had unprotected vaginal sex and about a week later i noticed a red patch on the shaft of my penis (under foreskin).
I went to a GUM clinic 10 days after the unprotected sex and had a blood and urine test for STIs, which all came back negative.
However, since then i have had some occasional testicular pain and a mild pain above the pelvic bone, which feels like a pressure on the bladder.
The woman at the GUM clinic thought the red patch on the penis was probably candidal balanitis, and gave me a cream which has made the red patch disappear, I was wondering if balanitis could be causing the pain elsewhere or if that is something different.
Could it be an STI which perhaps didnt show up on the tests due to it being too soon after the unprotected sex?
Thanks a lot.
