Infections such as yeast commonly lead to redness, itching, and even cracking of the foreskin. The infection can be easily treated using over-the-counter antifungal creams such as clotrimazole or miconazole. One should stick to the recommendations and use the cream for the prescribed period even in case the conditions worsen. At times, systemic antifungal drugs may be prescribed. For more information, seek advice from a healthcare provider.
