Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for your query ,based on the facts and photograph that you have posted it appears that you have developed what is called as Paraphimosis .

You need to consult qualified General Surgeon or Urologist for clinical examination and get it reduced immediately either manually or by giving injection Hyluranidase locally to be followed by taking antibiotic and anti inflamatory medicaations fpr a week..

He would be the best person to decide whether you need to get circumcised later on or not.

Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions , I shall be happy to help you .
Thanks and Regards.
