  5. Ive been dealing with candida balanitis for about a month now. My urologist prescribed Surfaz cream and antibiotics, and the infection seems to have cleared up. However, the redness on the head of my penis still appears whenever it gets hard, and this has been happening for over 6 months. I visited a dermatologist for the scars left by the infection, and he gave me Desonide cream to use. After about two weeks, I masturbated, and the red spots came back. I saw another dermatologist, and he prescribed Onabet SD lotion, Fluconazole tablets, and Dazit tablets. Im really worried about this redness and whether the infection is fully gone. Im 25 years old, my sugar level is 119 but I dont have diabetes. Can you help me understand why the redness keeps coming back and how I can fully cure this?

Even though superficially Candida looks washed off, systemically it's present that's the cause of recurrence,You to use the prescribed medicine and follow your doctor advice, maintain personal hygiene,no need to worry it's curable,have patience.
