Hello
Irritation and bleeding in foreskin may require removal of foreskin.
It is also useful for you in later life.This condition may cause problem in sexual life.
You may need circumcision(surgical removal of foreskin).It is a small operation and it is the treatment of choice in phimosis(condition in which foreskin can't be retracted over glans penis).
You need evaluation by a surgeon.
Get well soon.
Take Care
