A member asked:
A friend of mine used neosporin as lube to masturbate and now claims to have itching and burning and pain at the tip of his penis and a rash near tip?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neosporin allergy: Neopsorin contains 3 different antibiotics, and an allergy to any one of them is possible, with an allergy to the neomycin component being the most common. A reaction to the hydrocarbon ointment carrier is also possible, though less likely. The recommendations of dr james lin are appropriate.
