Yeast infections over the penile region need to be managed by regular application of antifungal creams containing agents like clotrimazole.
These have to be regularly applied over the affected areas twice daily after thorough washing of the affected area .
It takes atleast two weeks of treatment for complete healing .
In some severe cases ,oral antifungal agents have to be given along .
