Fungal infection on penis

2018-01-13 16:13:25
Hello, I've had a fungal infection on my penis for a months or so now. I saw my GP and was prescribed Daktarin cream, and the symptoms decreased significantly. However, I recently run out, and I experienced dry skin again. I was prescribed Daktacort cream this time, however it says not to be used on genital region. Is it safe to use? Also, as I am only experiencing mild dry skin now, would shae butter be suitable to use as a moisturiser? Thank you
