Is Alcohol Consumption Safe After Candida Balanitis Treatment?
Question: Was treated for candida balanitis. Using AF & neosporin cream for 7 days. Drank alcohol this past weeknd. Now have lower back ache,bloating, stiff neck. Herpes?
Brief Answer:
NOT herpes, please!
Detailed Answer:
HI and thank you so much for this query.
I have reviewed your information fully and these symptoms are not suggestive of herpes. Alcohol after treatment has no effect on the drugs and would in no way lead to herpes. Please, relax about this. Also, I will appreciate if you could upload an image for review as well. For now, exercise often and make sure to move these affected areas with regular exercise so as to regain the normal range of movement and avoid stiffness. INCREASED FRUITS, VEGETABLES AND FIBERS would help with the bloating, too.
“I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.

There is nothing to show in a pic being that all candida rash is gone. Throbbing in penis tip, sore lower back, bloating and stiff neck, what could it be then?
Brief Answer:
Most likely not related to a specific disease condition!
Detailed Answer:
HI and thank you so much for this precision.
Your symptoms cannot be explained by a specific disease condition and therefore makes this to sound more as transient symptoms not originating from a disease condition. I will recommend a combination of tylenol and Ibuprofen for 3days. Report progress to me for further review and guidance.
I wish you well.
