Patient's question:
I have developed candidal balanitis, and the doctor prescribed Nystatin vaginal cream. My wife also got it and is wondering how we can treat it together as a couple. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
You can apply Yifuqing ointment locally, twice a day. First, wash the area before applying the medication. Generally, it takes about a week to heal. It has excellent antifungal effects, with a treatment course of 2-4 weeks. For treating fungal infections of the genital organs, both partners should be treated, and sexual activity should be avoided during the treatment period. Men should also frequently clean between their legs to maintain local hygiene and prevent irritation. In addition to treating balanitis, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet and maintain a cheerful mood in daily life to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
