Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I used a moisturizer on my penis and wore a tight undergarment a few days back. Since a week, I have had a red rash on my penis, and the skin is itchy. However, there is no pain. I have not used any powder or cream for the rash. Is the rash because of the moisturizer that I have used? Kindly advise.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern. Rash on the penis can occur due to various reasons. Kindly send a picture of the affected area to assess the condition and suggest the appropriate diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.

Hello doctor,
Thank you for the response. I am attaching the pictures for your reference. Kindly advise.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Thank you for sharing the pictures. I have reviewed them (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). It appears to be allergic contact dermatitis due to friction. Always clean the area with mild soap. I suggest the below treatment plan. Cream Candid-B (Clotrimazole and Beclomethasone) is to be applied twice daily. Take Tablet Levocetirizine 5 mg once at night for seven days. Take Tablet Fluconazole 150 mg single tablet after the meal. Consult a specialist doctor, talk to him or her and start the treatment with their consent. I hope this helps. Thank you.
