Possible Balanitis

Hi, I am having redness and itching under my foreskin. I tried consulting doctor for which they suggested Flucanozole and Candid Cream. It has been 2 months now but still there are no signs of improvement. There is a bad odour and buildup of smegma even after cleaning everyday with warm water now. Stopped using soap. Could this be a bacterial infection too and not just Fungal. Please help. The end of the penis head is swollen and red. There are also cuts developing under the foreskin which normally does not happen. I am allergic to NSAID and Quinolone.

Anal and groin area itching

Hello Doctor, I have been experiencing itching for quite a long time in the groin area (inner thighs near the penis) and around the anal region. The itching becomes especially intense when I go to bed, whether during the day or at night. I have already taken antifungal medication (AF-150) and used clotrimazole (Candid cream), and Luliconazole but there has been no improvement. There are no clear red rashes or ring-like marks, but the skin has become irritated and slightly darker due to scratching. Could you please guide me on what this condition might be and what treatment I should follow?
