Detailed Answer:
Hi

I understand your concern regarding your skin problem and I hope I am able to help you in the same.
You seem to have developed candida infection of the groin region .
This can lead to itching and whitish discharge over the penile region .
You should wash the affected area twice a day followed by application of canestan or candid cream over it .
Apply the medicine regularly for atleast two weeks for complete treatment.
Do not apply any other cream or oil .

I am sure this will help you.
