Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Based in the description, it appears that you could be having infection of the skin over penis called 'balanitis'.
Kindly do the following to overcome it.
1. Clean the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. After drying, apply Neomycin with Hydrocortisone cream over it as a thin layer.
3. Take a course of oral antibiotics Tablet. Amoxacillin with Clavulenic acid.
4. Take antiinflammatory medication Tablet.Ibuprofen after food twice daily.
5. Wear loose fitting undergarments to provide proper ventilation and avoid friction in the area.
6. Abstain from sexual activities till the symptoms subside completely.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
