i was diagnosed with balanitis approx. 3 weeks ago. The Dr. prescribed Lamasil AT and told me if I did not see any changes to come back in about 4 weeks. Since this time the redness can be very strong or seemingly disappear. This morning it seemd almost completely gone but by lunch time i was red and scaly. I am concerned about this because there appears to be a new area that is infected which is right next to the original site, and is showing the same symptoms. This is pretty stressing because it has affected my relationship w/ my beautiful girlfriend and we cannot express our love as often as we would like. I am going to make an educated guess here, but the fact that I am intimate with her is probably what is causing the balanitis to go unaffected by the medication. Furthermore, I am active physically which I think may be aiding the situation. Is there a possibility that this may be something other than balanitis, such as psoriasis or eczema? If I am right in my assessment, what is the most likely course of action, will I be re-prescribed the same medication and told to stay away from my girlfriend, or will a stronger cream and antibiotic be prescribed? What are the odds I will have to have a carbon-laser or other type of procedure done? Thank you for your help in advance.
