Hello
I share your concern
At the outset I would.like further information for better assessment like
Since how long you have this problem
If possible upload a photograph
any history of unprotected sex?

I see patients with similar complaints in my clinic and I would advise them for few investigation to establish a diagnosis like CBC, blood sugar, serological test for herpes and syphilis and urine culture

in my opinion you may require a course of antibiotics after physical examination and based on investigation findings

Meanwhile you should wash it properly with antiseptic soap or solutions and keep it clean and moist
you can apply antibacterial or antiseptic ointment other avoid superadded infection

Please write back to me with the details I have asked for so that I will be able to tell you lore accurately
Best wishes
