Can Hydrocele be Medically Treated? The short answer is, NO.. If the hydrocele is relatively small and does not cause discomfort, it might not require any treatment. There isn't a medication currently available that can treat hydrocele effectively

I've been dealing with this really stubborn balanitis on the head of my penis for over a month now, and it's just not improving. I've already been to my doctor twice. First, they gave me fluconazole, and the second time, some antifungal cream along with hydrocortisone ointment. Neither treatment has worked. What could be the reason my balanitis isn't clearing up? Should antibiotics be considered in this situation?

Yes visit Dermatologist or Urologist for proper evaluation and appropriate management
