Candida balanitis. Topical Antifungal and Steroid combination cream

Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you for writing to us at healthcaremagic.

I have gone through your query and I have also reviewed images

You seem to have developed candida infection. Candida is a yeast.

I would suggest you to apply a cream e. g Clotrin-B cream which is a combination of clotrimazole and beclomethasone dipropionate. You may use it twice daily for a week.
