I've got this little red spot right where my foreskin ends and the head of my penis begins, and it's been giving me some pain when I touch it. Sometimes it seems to spread to other areas on the head. Its starting to worry me a bit. What do you think could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

Candid cream for local application , tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient..
