Redness On Penis Gland And Foreskin, Inflammation, Dry Skin. Applying Cream, No Results. Suggestions?
I've had redness on my penis gland and foreskin. My doctor prescribed a n antifungul and steroid. After foreskin kept sticking to the gland and after a few days both got inflamed again. Doctor suggested I use cream again but the results are the sams.
One oroblem is that after a few days the skin drys out and gets inflamed. Is there a safe moisturizer that won't make problems worse?

Hi ! You have not mentioned on your age. In case of such non responding infections, it is safe to get your blood sugar tested. If it is normal, and not responding to local creams, then you may have to take some oral anti fungal drug after consulting the dermatologist. Wishing you an early recovery.
