A member asked:
Prodromal hsv symptoms before the first outbreak? tingling in penis tip for a day or two (months after brief oral sex encounter). after lots of masturbation this week. feel fine now.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Penis tip: Discomfort in the tip of the penis can be caused by skin involvement by herpes but I would expect lesions to erupt. Mild irritation/inflammation of the penis head or urethra after excess masturbation is more likely.
