Most doctors actually prescribe monistat. The man should apply it directly to the skin. If it persist add vinegar to monistat. Doctors will also prescribe Diflucan or Nizoral which are very strong antibiotics. If your man does have a yeast infection it needs to be treated or you will get infected as well.
