Hi so I have been on and off a flare up for the last 3 weeks. The last week I have really only had the tightness in my penis like a muscle spasm and that's something that doesn't bother me. But I was put on a 129 pill 21 day prednisone 5mg tablet taper off schedule for a yeast infection I got in my groin. Ever since then my problem has gone away came back gone away came back. Could the steroids be causing this?
Absolutely. If your issues happen to be caused by a stealth infection, the steroids will decrease your immune system response and cause the infection to grow stronger.
