As you used condom, there is no chance of getting STI. It can be some thing from within.
1- it could be due to poor hygiene around tip of penis. Here smegma is deposited and if not cleaned, get cause problems like you mentioned
2- are you diabetic? Itcan cause all kinds of infections.
I think you should get yourself checked for Diabetes and if it is normal, make habit of cleaning the penile head with running water while taking bath and apply some cream containing anti fungal like ketokonazole and antibiotic like Neosporin.
