Fungal rash on penis

.I have a discolored red spot on the shaft of my penis, I have taken keteconozol and diflucan in the past for short periods of time and they have gotten rid of this. Now my doctor put me on 200MG of Keteconozol for 8 weeks at 200mg dosage. I have been taking them now for two weeks, how long will it take this to go away? .

Thanks so much, I was getting worried that it wasn't working at all. And I actually have changed my diet and added continous exercise, and lots of water to help cleanse my system. Any suggestions on a good probiotic to take.

You should take the full course.  The skin needs to go through some healing time and natural skin shedding time before the appearance will completely go away.  Add a probiotic and cut back on sugar and processed flour foods and beer to get your body back to normal so you don't keep growing this stuff.  And any time you use topical or oral antifungal, use the entire course.  Don't stop early.
