Hi..,looks like you have developed Balanitis..Balanitis is an infection that can make you uncomfortable in one of the most sensitive areas -- the end of your penis and the loose flap of skin that covers the tip.... If you don’t keep that area clean, you raise your chances of getting the infection. Use a mild soap, because harsh chemicals can irritate the skin on your penis and trigger balanitis, too...
Antibiotics for bacterial balanitis. It comes as a pill or a cream.Antifungal cream if the condition was from candida yeast...Steroid creams can relieve balanitis caused by skin disease...Consult Dermatologist...
