I'm experiencing a recurring ringworm-like infection on the tip of my penis that tends to appear after having sex with my wife, even though we're using a condom. Could this be an allergic reaction to the condom? I usually use Candid B ointment, and it seems to help for a bit, but then the issue comes back. What could be causing this, and how can I prevent it from happening again?

I've been dealing with jock itch since July this year, so it's been over two months. I admit I didnt take it seriously at first, but I started applying betadine frequentlylike every few hoursover the past week except when I'm sleeping. The rash has spread to almost my entire groin area, and I'm not sure if its actually improving. I havent had the chance to see a doctor yet, but I'm curious if this kind of jock itch can still be treated effectively with betadine. What do you think?

Applying betadine may help with disinfection, but for the treatment of jock itch, it is important to use antifungal medication. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Additionally, you can take oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting clothes, and avoid sharing towels or clothing to prevent spreading the infection.
