Treatment of candidiasis in men can be tailored according to the site of infection. For localized infections of the external genitalia, topical cleansing with a sodium bicarbonate solution is typically recommended, followed by application of clotrimazole cream. In more severe cases, oral antifungal medication may be added as adjunctive therapy. During treatment, maintaining local hygiene is essential, and the diet should be light and bland to avoid exacerbating symptoms.
