Brief Answer:
Are you able to pull the foreskin bak?
Detailed Answer:
HI and thanks for this image. I have reviewed it fully.
I wish to know whether you are able to pull the foreskin back over the glans penis with ease. If this is not possible, then you may be having phimosis which needs a surgical release. Let me get the response to this question before making further recommendations

Brief Answer:
This is phimosis. Please, see a urologist!
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
This is caused by fluid being unable to move out of the foreskin freely leading to accumulation. I will suggest that you go ahead and see a urologist. Unless you have a very strong stand against circumcision, there is the best and most appropriate treat at this time. Hydrocortisone is a powerful anti inflammatory and when better results are not obtained, then we need to further evaluate this.
I wish you well and let me know if this settles well with you.
