Hello
Thanks for query .Based on what you have described I would state that you have developed staphylococcal infection of hair follicle (Boil) over base of the penis .
You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Augmentin along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily .
Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily and dress the wound properly using topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice daily .
It should get cured within a week .
