Question : Hello Dr. XXXXXXX Goel, Thank you for your diagnosis & remedy suggested. Many thanks for the alternate medicine suggested instead of Forcan 200 mg. I have taken tablets AF- 150 mg once daily for 5 days & applied the Canestan Cream locally on my penis. I am feeling better. The soreness & redness of the vein joining the foreskin to the tip of the penis has gone. So has the burning sensation. I am now able to pull my foreskin backwards without any pain. However I still feel that this is not as spontaneous & natural as before & takes some time & needs to be pulled slowly as the skin of the opening remains shrunk. Regards

Thank you so much Doctor. Do I need to continue to even apply Canestan Cream locally on my penis for another 6 weeks still ? or just the tablets ? What about the sexual activity ? Do I need to refrain from sexual intercourse ? Can I masturbate ? Would masturbation be fine ? or would that harm ? Regards
