Seeking Treatment advice
I’ve been dealing with minor candida Balanitis for about 5 months now and have had some success with managing it, I have been using ketoconazole for a few months and had a few rounds of fluconazole. I keep using the cream until symptoms are almost down to none and then will have some kind of slip up. (Masturbating, falling asleep without applying, sweating and not being able to wash) and keep ending up back where I started. I had a few weeks of steady recovery but I had a slip up and didn’t stay on top of it and this week is the worst it has ever been. Most my tip is covered in spots. I am exhausted, so much money spend, many doctor visits and them not believing me or saying what I am doing is working and to keep doing the same treatment. I need advice on what to do next. Ketoconazole has been working for me at keeping my skin at bay but not eliminating it as I hoped. I am thinking switching to clotrimazole fully as I was recommended ketoconazole to treat ringworm and found over the counter creams worked better and quicker for me. I am going to request another few doses of fluconazole but I want to know if possible what topical creams or tips you can share with me that have been successful for you. Thank you!
