Is It Safe To Use Metrogyl-p On The Glans Of Penis?

Hello Doctor, I recently consulted a urologist for a red patch underneath the foreskin of my penis, for which he suggested to apply Metrogyl-p for 2 weeks. I have purchased the ointment, but it says that it is for external use only. Is it safe to use Metrogyl-p on the glans of the penis?

Hello.
Welcome to HCM.
This is Dr. Swarnava Dattagupta answering your query.

See, for external use means application on the skin, not to be ingested orally. You can definitely use metrogyl-p ointment over your glans penis without any adverse effects. Don't worry, follow the orders of your doctor.

Hope this was helpful.
