Expert: Stephen W. Leslie, MD Date: 8/25/2008 Subject: WHITE PATCHES ON MY PENIS HEAD
Question ...hiii , please help me sir.....im suffuring from this problem by past four years , i got white patches on the skin of my penis head ......so wat can i do now ?
Answer William:
The obvious answer is consult your physician. We don't prescribe any treatment or provide medical services on this forum.
While the white patches could be just a dry skin problem, a yeast or Candida infection is another possibility. Check with your physician to be sure. Meanwhile, don't put any cream, lotion or anything else on the area until your physician allows.
