I'm really worried about my husband. His private area keeps itching all the time and when he scratches, it gets red and painful. The doctor gave him a soap and cream, and when he uses the cream, it doesn't itch. But as soon as he stops using it, the itching comes back. Were really looking for a permanent solution. What should we do?

For any medicine to show effect it should be used properly as per the doctor's instructions.So have patience and use it to its full extent.Even then if you didn't see any change then ask your doctor for oral medication
