Hi,
Yes its a yeast infection. Use clotrimazole cream for local application on foreskin twice in a day for 5 days. Take tab Fluconazole once a day for 5 days. Work with your primary care doctor to achieve these.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care

Dr. PRAMOD KOKARE
