<s>[INST] I masturbated last week and seemed to take a long time finishing. The next day Wednesday it seemed red and sore so I went to look for something at cvs and ended up buying hydrocortizone and applied it at 7:00 again at 9:00 after taking a hot bath figuring I washed it off and applied it again in the morning. I never read the directions and covered my penis in it before going to work thinking it would only help. I m thinking I put on too much and some got in my tip because it started stinging a little that morning. Friday I switched to desitin thinking that might help more because the hydrocortizone seemed to burn and sting. I again not learning from the day before generously applied it before going to work. It is now Monday night all I keep thinking about is this and have a constant feeling that my penis is tingling and there. I had protected sex 8 weeks ago and everything you read about discomfort urinating is stds but I think it s from the oitments. What do you think [/INST] Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum   It may not be due to ointment as you think. Dry and rough handling of genitals during masturbation/intercourse can cause this. Please visit a doctor for examination and further management. Do not come to the conclusion on your own. All the best. </s>
