My pennies itches. can i put bacitracin on it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely to help: The most common cause of penis itching is a fungal infection which can be treated with topic antifungals such as clotrimazole. Bacitracin kills bacteria so it's unlikely to help at all. Of course, without a picture it's hard to tell what it is.
