Itchy Red Spots Under Penis Skin, Used Steroidal Cream, Using Betnovate-GM, Sensitive To Touch. Advice?
I had 2-3 red spots on under skin of my penis . They were reappearing after a period of 1 month. I used steroidal cream, it disappeared after 2-3 days. Two weeks ago i again noticed 2 big red spots on the same area of skin. I have been using betnovate-GM cream but i do not see any change in redness. Red sopts are sensitive if touched, otherewise they are painless. I also feel little itching under the fore skin of penis if cream is not applied. Can you please advice me? Thanks in advance.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
It seems that you are having a recurrent fungal infection of your genitalia. Maintaining a good hygiene along with oral anti fungal agents are sometimes necessary. You need to consult your dermatologist for a proper evaluation and to rule out any STDs.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
