Q. I am having itching in the penis area. What should I do?
Hello doctor, I have itching in the penis area. Kindly advice.
Hello. Please wash the area with lukewarm water regularly. Use a mild soap. Do not use the same towel in pubic area that which you use elsewhere on the body. Observe clearly if there is any change in color, foul smell, lesions over the penis. Maintain good hygiene down there. Remove pubic hair and keep the area dry. If you are the type who sweats a lot, then use mild antiperspirant talc over the groin area. If the climate where you live is very sultry, and you may need to bath many times daily. Use a different set of clothes every day. Do not use the same clothes again.
