Suggest Treatment For Balanitis While On Ciprofloxacin

I have had balanitis for over a year. I have taken several rounds of ciprofloxacin and it just will not go away. I play a lot of basketball and that gets it sweaty and irritated. I do drink beer does that cause balanitis. Penis looks completely normal but just slightly hurts at the tip and just doesn t feel right. I have been to Urologist several times he says I m fine. I m not. What should I do?

Hello,

I think you may be having any fungal or yeast infection which is causing the irritation on the top of the penis. I think you should continue ciprofloxacine as prescribed by your doctor, wash with gentle soap and dry well. Use cotton underwear.

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

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka , General & Family Physician
