Got A White Flaky Patch On Penis. Skin Cracks, Bleeds. Applied Panderm Antifungal. But Reappeared. Suggestions
About 2 months ago I got a white flaky patch at the base of my penis into the pubic hair area, about 1.5cm in diameter. Occasionally the skin would crack and bleed. I treated it with Panderm antifungal cream and it disappeared after a week or so. I was ill recently with tonsillitis, and I am currently using Augmentin as the AB. I noticed the white patch has reappeared in the exact same area as before and has already cracked. Kindly review and advise.

Hi there ~
I understand your concern. With the description of your lesion I believe that you may have an eczematous lesion in the pubic region. I advise you to consult a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and start yourself on medications and treatment to help in the healing process.
Take care and have a lovely day!
