Brief Answer:
Needs Biopsy of the lesion to be done .

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .

Based on the facts and the photographs that you have posted You have lesion on the glans penis which is red and raised above the surface of the glans penis .

In view of the history of the lesion being for long duration of more than 5 months and there being no sign of it getting it cured with all the necessary treatment the possibility of it being a malignant lesion has to be ruled out by doing biopsy from the lesion to rule out cancer of the penis .

Consult qualified Urologist for clinical evaluation and get biopsy from the lesion and send it for histopathological examination.

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions , I shall be happy to help you .
Thanks and Regards.
