Question 3

I can feel itching inside my penis from where it starts.
It gives me urge to masturbate to feel better but it doesn't stops.
No burning sensation while urinating. Only itching sensation

Accepted Answer

This itching sensation inside the penis could be due to a fungal infection. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area twice a day for about 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg as a single dose. Make sure to maintain good hygiene and avoid any irritants that may worsen the itching. If the symptoms persist, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I talked to a doctor about white flakes on my scalp, and he recommended Noskurf lotion (overnight) and Diprovate Plus lotion (after a bath on dry hair). Do these lotions only help with flakes, or can they also work for hair loss?
