What Are The Symptoms And Treatment For Yeast Infection Of The Penis?

I am 14, and the rim of my penis is like a light purple for some reason. There's also light little white flakes on it, but they wash off easy. It also has a very fishy smell even though I wash it everyday. Sometimes with soap but the soap kind of irritates the foreskin. I am uncircumsised. I also had a yeast infection about a month ago but it has gone away after taking coconut oil. Does it have to do with the yeast infection?

First don't use soap for washing glans. From your description it looks like mere smegma. Clean your glans after every urination if its a fungal infection (yeast), there will be associated itching.
