Brief Answer:
Oral terbinafine with topical flucanazole wil help

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,

I have carefully read your query and understand your concern.

Redness and cuts in your case could largely be either fungal in origin or traumatic from forceful intercourse .

In either case infection should be treated or prevented first.

In case if you did not respond to antifungals like Clotimazole,i would like to start you on tab terbinafine 250mg oral tab twice daily for 2 weeks with daily application of oit flucanzole with betamethasone with moisturizers like lactocalamine soln.

This should offer excellent activity.

Avoid any kind of penile manipulation for the next fortnight.

I hope this info helps you,
Thank you
