Brief Answer:
Could be due to infection of foreskin (Posthatitis )

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have irritation and burning of foreskin

I shall be happy if you can post me few more details to help me in making comments on your problems.
1) Are you able to retract your foreskin completely over glans penis ?
2) Are you diabetic?

This could be due to either infection of the foreskin (Posthatitis) or Phimosis .However it needs to be confirmed by a clinical examination by a qualified General Surgeon or Urologist .

You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily.along with topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice daily.

If problem persists you may need to get circumcised .This is a simple surgery done under local anaesthesia as a day care surgery and offers permanent cure .

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.
Dr.Patil.
