Hi, I am male, 39, I have got red rashes, very itchy, on my penis collar and head and scrotum. I am also itching on my inner thighs but got no rashes there. I also have a few slight dark patches on my thighs near my genitals. Can I use canesten all over these areas?

According to your complaints you seem to have fungal infection caused due to candida. This can occur due to excessive sweating, those having diabetes and through sexual contact. You can apply canestan cream. You need to work up for early diabetes. Avoid using soap for cleaning. You can use any lactic acid wash instead. You may also require oral medicines. You may consult online after making payment for the same.
