Brief Answer:
Fungal infection of the penile region
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I understand your concern regarding your skin problem and I hope I am able to help you in the same.
Fissures or cuts can occur over the foreskin due to candidal infection which is a fungal infection .
Keep the affected area clean and dry.
Wash the affected area with lukewarm saline water twice daily.
Apply a topical antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream over the affected area twice daily,regularly for atleast two weeks .
You might need a course of oral antifungals if the infection still tends to persist or increase .
