<s>[INST] I have recently developed to what my knowledge seems to be a yeast infection. I am a male, 20 of age, and have never had this before. I have severe itchiness around the anus as well as the penus area. No pain and I hope it stays that way. Could this be something different? [/INST] Hello,Welcome to HCM,The symptoms suggests me that you may be having fungal infection.The fungus are the normal comensals of the genital region which will be kept under control by the helpful bacteria whenever there is a change in the environment these fungus will activate and produces their symptoms.The fungus can survive for longer period of time in the areas which are moist and non hairy.I would suggest you to follow1.Keep these area dry and clean2.Apply topical antifungal creams like amphotericin B.Your symptoms will improve with these remedies.Thank you. </s>
