Take complete treatment

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Since you have developed fungal infection over the penile region , you need to take tablet fluconazole 150 mg tablet stat and then repeat it after a week.
Continue to apply clotrimazole cream twice daily for at least ten days .

I am sure this will help you .
