Brief Answer:
Balanitis

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome
I have gone through your query.
From the complaints and discription of the problem, it appears a condition of Balantitis an inflammation of the foreskin of your penis. It would be helpful if you can upload the pictures of it for confirming.

It is probably caused due physical trauma while masturbation or during sexual intercourse.

It is easily treatable condition ,i would suggest you to
- carefully retract the foreskin daily and soak in warm water to clean penis and foreskin.
-Avoid soaps (they can irritate the skin and make the inflammation worse). You can use mild soap like dermadew.
-You may use salt baths for symptomatic relieve. It will help in reducing the swelling if any.
-Apply typical antibacterial ointment like neosporin. Requirement of oral antibiotic and steroid cream can be decided post examination, for this I would suggest you to see general surgeon.

Avoid forcefully pulling the fore skin, avoid sexual activity, give it time to heal.

Hope this helps.
Take care.
