What Causes Scaly Itchy Skin On The Penis?
Goodnight I used candid b cream on my entire penis ( head and everything ) as prescribed by a pharmacist for a slight itch I was experiencing. Itch is gone completely but the penis has begun peeling ( head an everything) very painful now. He advised me to use A&D ointment which I am using for last 2 days, not seeing any improvement and I m very scared. Only used the candid b for 4 days before peeling began. Can someone please advise
