Hello doctor,I am a male, 33 years old, height is 164 cm, weight is 56 kg. I am suffering from infection (red patches and irritation) on glans and shaft of the penis since 18 to 20 days. No pain and burning sensation while urinating. When I clean the glans and shaft using soft cotton cloth, 1 or 2 drops of blood is observed. I have taken Fluconazole 150 mg (one tablet after seven days, total of two tablets), Moxikind-CV 625 twice a day for five days. Cetirizine (one tablet per day) and applied Surfaz SN cream (Betamethasone (0.025 % w/w), Clotrimazole (1 % w/w), Neomycin (0.5 % w/w)) on the glans and shaft since 10 days. But this has not helped much, redness is increasing. I stopped applying Surfaz SN cream. Presently, I am using coconut oil which is providing some relief. How much time will it take to fully recover? Are the medication appropriate? Please advice.
Hi. I saw the clinical picture (attachment removed to protect patient identity). I see a large erosion on the glans (tip of the penis). I can list a few possibilities like herpes, candidal balanoposthitis, Zoon's balanitis, erythroplasia of Queyrat.  Is this for two weeks only? Did it start as blisters or water-filled bubble? Is it painful? Itchy? or absolutely no symptoms? Is this happening for the first time? Any history of unprotected sexual intercourse? If yes, how many days back? Surfaz SN is a potent steroid cream, not safe to use for genital skin for infection. Was this prescribed by a doctor?
