White blisters on Penis head
I have had white/red spots on penis head for over a month now.I consulted a dermatologist 2 weeks back and I was advised Clotiwick-B and flucanazole 150(once a week) after which the spots started spreading even more.So i consulted another dermatologist and he prescribed Fucibet and Wysolone tablet.Now after applying it there's slight difference but I'm worried as this is steroid and if it's advisable to take it.

Young man,
While i empathize with your unique situation, this is not the second but Third opinion you seek from a Dermatologist.
I for one would be wary of being critical of one or the other Dermatologist.
Each would have formed an opinion as per his/her thinking process. This is why AI will never be able to replace a good doctor going forward.
To give you a pucca opinion, yes a clear pic/pics in stages plus a more detailed history especially history of sexual contact, exposure and partner history etc will be required.
For this reason it is probably best to consult a Dermatologist 📥 Online or in-person as per your situation.
If Banglore based welcome to come across to any clinic I consult at. Else welcome to find me Online on any portal I consult on.
Steroids per se are never a bad thing if prescription by a qualified doctor for the condition is warranted. It's abuse has what has given it a bad name.
If you are getting better, stick with your consultant Dermatologist. Get him/her itself to explain it better for you instead of searching for the perfect Dermatologist.
Good Luck and wish you a speedy recovery 🙏

If you have consulted dermatologist and he/ she had prescribed you drugs , there may be some reason behind it. Andbyes steroids are not good for body, but only when taken unnecessarily, but there are some situations where treatment it self is steroid.
If you just want to have second opinion, we need detail history and photograph to evaluate your situation.
Next Steps
Continue treatment given, and do follow up.
Health Tips
Consult online, for detailed information of your situation. With photograph or video.
