Hi,

I am glad you chose icliniq for your medical-related queries.

I understand your concern and will try to help you with it.

Your concern may be balanoposthitis.

  1. Apply Aloederm gel (Aloe vera and Glycerine) first on the washed and dried affected area.
  2. Apply Efficort cream (Hydrocortisone) 0.127 %. Use it until the redness subsides.
  3. Apply Eberwin (Eberconazole) 1 % cream at bedtime.

Continue it for 30 days even if there is an improvement. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start using the medicines with their consent. Check your fasting blood sugar and postprandial blood sugar levels.

Thank you for consulting me.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

I recently started using a different soap. This problem started after I changed my soap. Should I discontinue using the soap? What soap should I use instead?

Answered by Dr. G. S. S. Sandeep

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I read and understand your concern.

Discontinue the soap. Instead, use a cleanser like Cetaphil, Episoft or Nosoap. They do not contain any chemicals. So, no lather will be noticed while using the cleansers. Revert in 15 days if there is no improvement after starting the medication.

Looking forward to your response in order to help you.

Thank you.
