Penis thrush/balanitis. used 2.5 weeks canesten (2% clortimazole) switched to 1% hydrocortisone. penis has began to blister,skin peel off normal?

Balanitis: Skin inflammation can create peeling, but the clotrimazole may not be curing the balanitis. To treat candida, I recommend topical nystatin ointment.
