Previosly I have consulted a doctor, had urine test which was ok & he suggested me to take Doxycycline & clotrimazole powder to apply but it haven't worked at all. I have consulted doctor but he cannot give the exact cause & solution. I took some other antibiotics as well but the penis odour still persist. Can I take other medicine like Sulphur 200C & Psorium 200 & antifungal cream like canesten or monistat which I found on internet. Please suggest the most effective way to get rid of bad penis smell. why is the smell there and how do I get rid of it? Which doctor I need to consult and treatment that would help make the smell go away? Right now I reside in Delhi so can I visit your clinic for treatment.
