Patient's question:
My glans is itchy very badly, the doctor said it's candidal balanitis, and then gave me a lot of medicine. There are oral medications as well as topical ones. I've been taking them for nearly a month according to the prescribed course. It's a bit better, but the effectiveness of the medicine has become weaker as time goes on. How can candidal balanitis be cured?Doctor's answer:
The most common stable way of clinical diagnosis for candidal balanitis is cross-infection through sexual intercourse. If the female's vagina is inflamed due to a fungal infection, clinical diagnosis will lead to balanitis in males. During the treatment of candidal balanitis, options such as Candide cream or Compound Ketoconazole cream can be used for local external application. If the inflammation is severe during treatment, it may be necessary to use antibacterial drugs for oral treatment.
