New here, inquiring about penile scabs that appeared and disappeared, only to appear again years later.

In 2017 my penis developed a bunch of sores that would seem to secrete white fluid, and after a few days, would scab over. Made getting an erection very painful. At the time I was unable to see a doctor, but to my relief the scabbing and sores went away after a little over a week. Mistakenly thought nothing of it as everything returned back to normal. Cut to 2 years later, end of 2019, I start developing an itch, an insane intense itching from the base of my penis, my scrotum, taint, and around my anus. No physical signs of damage, other than what my own scratching did. It was an itch that, once you started to scratch, NOTHING else in the world seemed to exist except that pleasurable "scratching your back" feeling, only 100x more intense. And even still, I didn't see a doctor, and just dealt with it for about a year. Last month I finally had enough and braved a visit to the doctor. She told me I might have a yeast infection, and gave me some cream to relieve the itching which helped immensely. Though, nothing really changed. If I didn't put the cream on, it itched. So she prescribed me another cream that has steroids in it. The DAY after I use it, I start seeing signs of my penis getting sores again, like how it was in 2017. Exact same feel and look. And now I'm here. I haven't told my doctor yet, I have an appointment scheduled for next week (only time they had available) but I'm freaking out a little bit, and don't want to wait that long for answers. And advise would be so very much appreciated. Don't really know how replying or this site works, but I can provide the names of the creams I was prescribed if needed.
