An infection or rash on the penis with negative test results may be due to a fungal infection, irritation, or a skin condition like dermatitis rather than to herpes or a serious infection. Such issues can occur due to moisture, poor hygiene, or a reaction to soaps or products. Keep the area clean and dry, avoid tight clothing, and do not apply random creams. It is best to consult a doctor or skin specialist to confirm the cause and start the right treatment.
