Red marks on penis
I've been to a urologist who told me that I have balanitis and gave me a betadine solution, a tablet, and candid b cream to apply twice a day. After 7 days, there is no improvement.
The doctor also kept pushing circumcision as some holy wine to fix all issues, when I can achieve full retraction, although the frenulum is a bit short.
How do I fix this, and do I go to a urologist or dermatologist about this?

Circumscission is last resort. You are suffering from candidial balanoposthitis which is fungal infection of the foreskin and glans penis. It present as itching, red spots on glans, swelling and cracks on foreskin and inability to retract it. Please call me or send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment.
