Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to a fungal infection. I suggest using Fluconazole 150 mg once. I also suggest using Clotrimazole cream for local application. I recommend to maintain a good hygiene.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
