Brief Answer:
Antifungal

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

You seem to be suffering from fungal infection. You should start yourself on T. Diflucan 150 mg once daily for 5 days under the care of your doctor. In addition, you need to apply clotrimazole cream on the glans twice daily under the guidance.

Take care.

Sincerely

Rajiv goel
