A penis size of 5.5 inches is within the average range and generally considered normal. If you're not experiencing any discomfort or issues with sexual function, theres no need to consult a doctor.

I'm really struggling with balanitis, and I've tried clotrimazole, ketoconazole, and onabet without much success. Do you have any other suggestions or treatments that might be more effective? I'm concerned nothing is working, and I could really use some help on what to try next.

For balanitis that is not responding to clotrimazole, ketoconazole, or onabet, you can try using Terbinafine cream. Apply Terbinafine cream twice daily on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid any potential irritants.
