Can Men Get Yeast Infections And What Are The Symptoms? I Have Developed Skin Tags (wobblers)around My Pubic Area And Have Had A White Disch

A DiabetesTeam Member asked a question 💭
Lancaster, UK

Can men get yeast infections and what are the symptoms? I have developed skin tags (wobblers)around my pubic area and have had a white discharge from the head of my penis which seems to have abated now but the rough skin and wobblers in my affected area are often very itchy. I have been told that it could be herpes that has led dormant for years. Can anyone shed any further light/advice?.....Thanks
