Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing itching due to fungal balanitis. I'd like to ask what medication is used to treat fungal balanitis?Doctor's answer:
First of all, this disease is caused by a fungal infection, so in treating it, it is generally necessary to use many antifungal drugs. For example, many types of ketoconazole ointment can be used, or povidone-iodine solution, etc. At the same time, during the treatment process, it is essential to pay attention to local hygiene and eat less spicy, irritating, and greasy foods. If it has not fully recovered for a long time, it is still necessary to seek systematic treatment from the dermatology department of the hospital.
