Hello
Thanks for query .
Presence of fine cuts with white deposits on foreskin with painful retraction of foreskin over glans penis strongly suggest infection of foreskin (Posthatitis).
You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefotaxime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily along with topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice daily.
Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily.
Ensure to avoid sexual encounters till it heals up completely.
If problem persists even after taking antibiotics for 2 weeks You will need to consult qualified General surgeon for clinical assessment and may need to get circumcised .
