Can Silvadene Cream Be Used On An Uncircumcised Penis?
Can silvadene cream be used on an uncircumcised penis? Initially there was a yeast infection. Treatment for that was completed but the skin continues to be inflamed erythemic and bleeds after being washed. Person is on Xarelto for a blood clot and has had spotty bleeding for over two weeks now. Anti fungal creams are not doing anything and won t stay on well due to seeping
Hi, Silvadene cream can be used on the skin aspect of the penis but not on the glans or the mucosal aspect of the penis. But, it can lead to some skin staining so it is best to avoid it. the bleeding must be due to the Xarelto which is causing the blood to ooze easily due to decrease in clotting capability. I suggest just keep the area clean and dry and wait for a week or so and then take a call whether anything needs to be done. You can then consult a Dermatologist for best advice. Take care, Dr Rishi, New Delhi, India.
