Have Yeast Infection. Temporary Relief From Desonide. Suggest Any Safe And Effective Cure

default
Posted on Thu, 14 Mar 2013
Question: Persistant jock itch on/off over past few years, but the last several months very persistant. Dermatoligist diagnosed as yeast infection prescrided Desonide to on as needed basis, but only provides temporary relief, and he said this is a problem you will always have and will not go away. I disagree w/him, continue to use cream along w/ herbal remedies (oregano oil, cinnamon oil, tea tree oil rotation). The problem still persists.

In fact, small portion of skin below penis XXXXXXX on the shaft becoming leathery in texture and seems to be getting bigger. NEED HELP!!!!
