What Is Causing White Patches In Pubic Area Around Penis?

Good day! My name is Alfred, and I am curious about what's wrong with my pubic area, around the penis. There is a white-patch around it. Sometimes its not itchy but then it also becomes itchy. I don't know if its spreading everytime I scratch it. I'm afraid that it could be something really bad. Could you help me on this? What is its cause? Maybe sweating or my underwear. Thank you!

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. I think you are suffering from tinea cruris which is a type of fungal infection. More perspiration will cause this type of disease.

Treatment :

1. Take clotrimazole tab for once a day for 3 days.
2. Use clotrimazole powder for dusting.
3. After washing genital area use clotrimazole powder.
4. Use clotrimazole for topical use. you will be definately get relief from this awkward situation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thanks,
