Frequent yellowish discharge, burning sensation and whitish discoloration of the skin or the prepuce indirectly indicates it is balanitis or preputial skin infection. Yellowish discharge means ther is infection inside the urethra leading to pus discharge which is yellowish in colour. Whenever there is a discharge, trauma to the mucosal layer, indirectly causing a wound and urine over the wound causes burning sensation. When you say there is a urethral discharge, pain in the tip of the penis that means the meatus has also got an ulcer or a wound and then the skin over it causes a balanitis. It is called as balanoposthitis when it is completely heals by contracture. That means when the wound that is there, it heals by contracture, leading to more of phymosis and whitish discharge which is causing damage to the skin. So these patients has to be treated for the infection first and if the skin is tight then circumcision has to be done and a lot of hygiene has to be maintained, this usually occurs in older age group of people. So control of infection, hygiene and plenty of fluids will avoid you from these circumstances and when, balanitis, is there, we have to think if the patient is diabetic. An immunocompromsed patient should also be thought about.

Fungal infections are quite common across all age groups. It is not only in men, even women are also having Fungal infection and this incidence has kept on increasing recently. Why is it happening like that? It is mainly because of 2 reasons. It is because of lifestyle and because of fungus, whenever there is a lot of dampness it could be because of physical activity and some sweat too much and some are not able to maintain hygiene well. In these cases he fungus spreads. So commonly the Fungal infection spreads in the dampness for example in the underarms, or in the grains or lower abdomen, rarely it can happen in other areas like the posterior aspects like backs and buttocks or in people who are into driving profession like drivers or those who sit for long hours like software engineers, in them the sweat tends to accumulate on the back of the body and thus cases fungal infection.
