Oral medicine
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the information.
Since Candid has shown result, we can be sure that it is due to fungal infection.
I recommend taking oral antifungal this time. Tab Fluconazole 150mg.
This may cure the infection and make sure not to reoccur.
Do continue Candid gel and thorough washing the foreskin with warm water mixed with few drops of betadine twice daily before applying candid.
