Itching inside the penis can be caused by various factors such as fungal infections, contact dermatitis, or sexually transmitted infections. To help relieve the itching, you can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for about 1-2 weeks. It is important to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further irritation. If the itching persists or worsens, it is recommended to see a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm really struggling with a stubborn verruca that just won't go away. I've tried all sorts of treatments like verruca gel and even duct tape, but nothing seems to work. Do you think I should see a doctor to have it removed? I'm starting to get worried.

I understand your frustration with the verruca not going away despite trying various treatments. In this case, it would be advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment. They may prescribe stronger medications such as Salicylic acid solution or prescribe cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen to remove the verruca effectively.
