I've been dealing with this constant itching and a kind of pin-pricking sensation on my penis for over two weeks now. The skin's super dry and there are some rashes too. I'm really worried and I'm not sure what to do about it. Any suggestions?

I'm struggling with a pretty stubborn case of jock itch. It's been lingering for about a month, and even though it's a bit better now, the itching is still quite intense. Can you suggest a good antifungal cream to help clear this up?

-For jock itch, you can use Clotrimazole cream (e.g., Candid or Lotrimin) or Ketoconazole cream (e.g., Nizoral). Apply a thin layer twice daily after washing and drying the area thoroughly. Continue using it for at least 2 weeks after the itching subsides
