Suggest Remedy For Itchy, Red Rashes Under The Shaft Of Penis

Hello, I have a rash on the underside of the shaft of my penis, towards the base (near the scrotum). I have tried antibiotic ointment, as well as a steroid cream prescribed by an urgent care doctor. No other symptoms other than itching and redness. I had STD tests done by my doctor, blood came back negative for everything, and urine came back negative for everything.

Hi,

Usually fungal infection causes itching. You can use anti-fungal cream alone with antibiotic cream. If the itching is severe you can take anti histamine alone with oral anti-fungal. Share a picture for confirmation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. S. R. Raveendran, Sexologist
