Suggest Permanent Treatment For Yeast Infection

I ve been treating a yeast infection for what seems like forever.. I am a male who is not circumcised and it seems to get better but it hasn t completely gone away.. I ve taken two round of antibiotics and used some creams but I m guessing I m not getting it onto the infected areas successfully because I m still showing some signs that the yeast is still present.. what can I do because now I ve resorted to using Lotrimin cream

Hi,
Along with local application of anti-fungal cream or lotion you might require one course of oral anti-fungal medicine like Flucanozole 150 mg once in a week for 4 weeks.
This will give complete cure of infection.
Many a time collection of smegma and not cleaning regularly does produce itching.
Keep local hygiene clean, well shaved, dry and airy.
Ok and take care.
