Yeast infections must first be diagnosed before proper treatment can be administered. If you have already been to a doctor s/he may have prescribed antimycotic cream like clotrimasol, for instance. If you haven’t been to a doctor yet, you can consult a dermatovenerologist for help diagnosing a yeast infection.

Circumcision is a local surgical procedure during which the foreskin is removing. You can be circumcised because you still have your foreskin but you have to consult an urologist first to discuss reasons, risks, and a description of the procedure. You can get informed!
