Thanx for your kind advise. I'm already using Clotrimazole with beclomethasone without much relief. I shall ofcourse try out warm water treatment as suggested by you. My dermatologist had put me on Tab Fucanozole 150 mg besides topical without much relief. It is possible that the Tab I got through Army clinic was ineffective and I shall once again try out the ones available in the market. Thanx for your advise.

Hi,
This could be balanitis. Balanitis is inflammation of the glans penis. When the foreskin (or prepuce) is also affected, it is termed balanoposthitis.
Inflammation has many possible causes, including irritation by environmental substances, physical trauma, and infection by a wide variety of pathogens, including bacteria, virus, or fungus—each of which require a particular treatment.
Retract the foreskin daily and soak in warm water to clean penis and foreskin. Apply bacitracin (not Neosporin) for pediatric patients if bacterial infection is suspected.
Apply topical clotrimazole for adult men with probable candidal balanitis.
If the symptoms persist, you would need to consult your doctor.
Let us know if you need any other information.
