About
Bio
I love family medicine because I get to interact with children and adults of all ages while seeing a wide range of medical conditions. My father started our current practice in 1988 and it has thrived into one of the most popular clinics in Los Angeles County. We are extremely proud of the medical care we provide and make sure that our patients are extremely satisfied with the service they receive.

Unlikely to help: The most common cause of penis itching is a fungal infection which can be treated with topic antifungals such as clotrimazole. Bacitracin kills bacteria so it's unlikely to help at all. Of course, without a picture it's hard to tell what it is.

No: Since you took the morning after pill in the appropriate window of 72 hours after intercourse, the pill will be effective. In general, the morning after pill is about 90% effective at preventing pregnancy.
