Hi lybrate-user,
it would be better if you use any plain talcum powder than a medicated one. Most patients with friction problem won't have any fungal issues so a medicated powder is not advised as if you later, god forbid, need any antifungal treatment, then they won't work.
Best wishes.

However this doesn't need any further treatment, but to avoid unnecessary risk, you can go for Tetanus injection, so as to avoid infection. There are very very rare chances of catching rabies or rat bite fever, after a rat bite. So initially i will advice only for Tetanus injection.

Dear Lybrate user,
siloderm mixi cream is a combination of three medicines: beclometasone, neomycin, and clotrimazole which treat skin infections.

Balanitis is most common in uncircumcised men. Causes include skin disorders, infection, poor hygiene, uncontrolled diabetes and harsh soaps.
Symptoms include pain, redness and a foul-smelling discharge from under the foreskin.
Treatment depends on the cause, but may require antibiotics, steroid creams or antifungal creams. In extreme cases, the foreskin may need to be removed (circumcision).
