Itching on Penis with White Discharge
Dear Doctor,
For the past couple of weeks I have been experiencing itching on penis with white discharge. Further, the foreskin has also become tight and does not retract.
The only environmental change is increased dampness in my residence due to rain.
There is also increase in frequency of urination.
Last year during rains also, I had the same issue and jaf been diagnosed with Candidial Balanitis.
Kindly help
