Scrotum Itchy After Masturbation, Applied Baby Powder. Shaft Swollen With Pus Discharge. Remedy?

Okay, two days ago I had one of my normal masturbations. Less than 45 min, no lube, etc... Run of the mill stuff for a teenager. Yesterday, I noticed that my scrotum was getting extremely itchy but I though nothing of it and applied some baby powder to provide some comfort (I had just marched a parade in band, so I figured it was the sweat).

I woke up this morning and my penis was:
Swollen around the shaft and the scar tissue from when I was circumcised as well as the scrotum under my penis.
Discharging pus from around the underside of the shaft (almost like it's sweating).

It's really itchy and uncomfortable. I've been keeping it dry, I took two showers today to clean it off, changed underwear 4 times, been applying baby powder between my legs and my scrotum, etc...

Is there anything else I can do, and should I be worried about anything?

Thanks.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
It could be happened because of vigorous friction and skin might have traumatized and got infection, it may be superficial so applying any antibiotic ointment will bring the good result, Povidone would be best, baby powder wont work here, if it does not go away then you need to see the doctor, but it will come around, no more such act till it get better have good day.
