What medicine should men use for Candida

There are generally many reasons for the occurrence of Candida albicans in men, most of which are caused by poor hygiene habits. However, if men need to take medication for Candida albicans, it is best to take the medication under the guidance of a doctor, and not to take the medication blindly, otherwise it will affect the condition, which may aggravate the condition and increase the difficulty of treatment. During the treatment, you must develop good hygiene habits.

Male fungal infection often causes balanitis, and can also cause urinary tract infection, with symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain. Common clinical symptoms of balanitis include itching, redness of the foreskin and glans, and some red papules. Some patients will have bean curd-like secretions on the foreskin and glans. Fungal infection can also cause changes in the scrotal skin, causing redness and swelling of the scrotum, and skin keratinization.

1. Treatment of fungal urethritis should include the following methods:

(1) Stop using antibiotics and corticosteroids or reduce their dosage. For anemia or low plasma protein, transfuse whole blood or plasma, human albumin, etc., and pay attention to supplementing calories and vitamins to enhance the body's resistance.

(2) Fungal urethritis is mainly treated locally. 12.5 mg of amphotericin B is dissolved in 5 ml of distilled water and injected into the urethra. The distal urethra is clamped with a urethral clamp for 15 minutes. When there is a fungal infection in the bladder, 15 mg of amphotericin B can be dissolved in 100 ml of distilled water and injected into the bladder once a day for 11 days. The urine smear is then rechecked to observe the efficacy.

(3) Severe patients can be treated with oral antifungal drugs, such as fluconazole 150 mg, taken orally once; ketoconazole 200 mg, 1 to 2 times a day for 1 to 2 weeks; miconazole 500 mg, 2 times a day for 1 to 2 weeks; alkaline drugs can be taken at the same time to alkalineize the urine to inhibit the growth of fungi and increase the efficacy.

2. Treatment of fungal glansitis This disease is a common male genital disease caused by Candida albicans infection. It can be treated by cleaning the glans penis and foreskin with normal saline or Levanol wash to remove dirt, and soaking the foreskin and glans penis in sodium bicarbonate solution. Apply the scalp care wash to the glans penis 1 to 2 times a day, and apply antifungal ointment such as clotrimazole ointment and Daknin ointment for treatment.

3. In daily life, pay attention to drying clothes in the sun or in a ventilated place after washing; pay attention to avoid indirect infection in public places; use correct contraception, such as condoms; underwear should preferably be made of cotton, loose and breathable; if one party has a fungal infection, the other party should also be examined and treated to avoid cross infection, etc.
