I have been to the doctor just over a week ago and they did a few tests , urine and bloods. My doctor confirmed it was thrush and I was truing to establish how I had caused this (could it have been undiluted detol)
The doctor prescribed me cream and that wasn’t getting rid of the rash on tip of my penis. He has now prescribed (fluconozole) and today once I take the tablet will be day 3. I’m still not seeing any improvement and I am really worried (not sleeping) can anybody suggest anything please?
Surety the tablet should be kicking in by now ? Is there another Alternative?
To add the oral tablet prescribed is 50g
When you say " the doctor confirmed it was thrush " - is this their opinion by looking at the area, or was it confirmed on a skin swab taken from the area ??
It was confirmed by a skin swob

Ok if its proven to be candida ( thrush ) I would also be doing a glucose ( sugar ) check in a male . topical treatments like clotrimazole should be sufficient. Oral antifungals are usually not required ( unless diabetic ).
Thank you yet again Are my ok to use this in my bath

No need topical clotrimazole 1% should be fine.
