Question

I'm dealing with this jock itch and balanitis on my penis glans and I'm getting really worried. A few years back, I had ringworm and got treated by a doctor, which seemed to help, but then my scrotum skin ended up drying out and peeling completely. At the time, I thought it was just a part of the ringworm healing process. Now I'm freaking out, wondering if that's connected to what's happening now. I've been stuck with this jock itch ever since having the ringworm. Is this situation indicating some kind of penile cancer?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.
