Are Painless, Swollen Cuts Under The Head Of Penis After Having Sex Concerning?

My partner and I had sexual intercourse and he had some small cuts under the head of his penis after sex. These have swollen up. They are not painful and he can pull his foreskin back down over them, however the foreskin doesn't naturally retract back down over the swollen area without him pulling the foreskin down.

He has had cuts on his penis before after sex, but they have never swollen up like this before. Should he be worried?

Hi
Thanks for asking HCM
I usually advise in such cases with antibacterial cream for local application.Tell him to get a warm or saline wash also. A circumcision will be better in such cases.
Let me know if you have any futher query.
