Q. My glans has measles-like red spots all over it. Please suggest an ointment.
Hello doctor,
I am 52. I noticed my glans penis has some measles-like red spots all over. Overall, the glans penis seems reddish and slightly inflamed. A light irritation is felt.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have noted your concern and viewed the image (attachment removed to protect patient identity).
You seem to have a yeast infection called candidal balanitis. I suggest you use a topical antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1 % and Beclomethasone dipropionate 0.05 % combination (Candid-B cream or Clotrin-B cream) twice daily. In addition, I suggest you take an oral antifungal-like tablet, Fluconazole 150 mg once a day for three days. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start taking the medicines with their consent.
Regards.
Thank you doctor,
Which is a better ointment?
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
Either of these would do. Candid-B cream or Clotrin-B cream or Canesten-HC cream.
Regards.
