Hello. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Balanitis is irritation of the head (glans) of your penis. It's usually caused by poor hygiene or an infection. You're more likely to develop balanitis if you're uncircumcised. Red spots, swelling, and itching are common symptoms.

Genital herpes cause small red bumps or white blisters on the penis. Ulcers can also form when blisters rupture, followed by scabbing. In any case, without physical inspection, diagnosis is not possible. Do consult a skin specialist.

Hope I have answered your query. You can contact me for treatment options. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. K. V. Anand
