Itching inside the penis can be caused by various factors such as fungal infections, contact dermatitis, or sexually transmitted infections. To help relieve the itching, you can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for about 1-2 weeks.
