What Causes Tenderness And Redness On The Penis Head?

You need to get tested for the sexually transmitted infections.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM to post your health query.
I read carefully your question and I understand your concern.
Letting it heal may not be enough.
I will recommend for you to get tested for the sexually transmitted infections, if you haven't done it already.
-- Chlamydia and Gonorrhea by urethral swab
-- HIV, HepC and Syphilis in the blood.
-- Herpes
If all this come negative, and the rash you have has no relation with you being sexually active, then yes, apply the hydrocortisone, once or twice/day a thin layer.
But if you have been sexually active and the rash appeared after, then you will need to take a treatment anyway, despite of the negative results of the tests.
If worse or not better, I would recommend seeing a local doctor.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Otherwise please close and rate the answer.
Regards,
Dr. Papaqako
