Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you for writing to us
I am dr.kakkar (dermatologist).
I have gone through your query and I have noted your concern.
You both seem to have got yeast infection which can present as vulval itching and vagunal discharge in females and as inflammation of prepuce along with accumulation of whitish discharge under prepuce in males.
I suggest each one of you to take an oral antifungal kit e.g Zocon AS kit (kit contains a total of 4 tablets i.e 1 tablet of fluconazole, 2 of azithromycin and 1 of secnidazole). All 4 tablets in the kit need to be taken at once. Avoid sexual intercourse for a week.
Regards
