Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am 18 years old. I have a fungal infection in the groin area. It has got spread. It has affected my penis. Now I have an urge to urinate inside my penis. I want to get cured. Please suggest.

Answered by Dr. Shaunak Patel

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I suggest you consult your local dermatologist soon. I suggest you start with antifungal medications soon. Take capsule I-Win 100 mg (Itraconazole) twice daily after lunch and dinner for two weeks. Apply Eberwin cream (Eberconazole) over the affected area once daily after having a bath in the morning and once before going to bedtime for two weeks. Avoid rubbing with excessive soap. Trim your nails.

Clean the affected area every time before applying the cream. Stop taking fast foods for two weeks. Revert me after two weeks for a change in prescription. Change your underwear twice a day. Wash your underwear in hot water and dry it in the sun. Do not continue these medicines indefinitely. They will harm you. They are supposed to be used only for the desired time.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
