  5. Ive been dealing with itching in the area around my penis and the surrounding hairy region. Its not too severe, but its annoying enough that I cant go out without applying candid powder, and I feel uncomfortable in the mornings before I shower. Its been happening for a while now, and Im looking for a permanent solution. Can you help me with this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection in the groin area. To treat this condition, you can use an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole cream twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks. It is important to maintain good hygiene, keep the area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
