Hi there ~

I understand your concerns. Discoloration of the foreskin may be due to rough sex. Itching is a sign of fungal infection or poor hygiene. I also think that getting treatment for pityriasis rosea will help with the symptoms. I would not be worried about sexually transmitted diseases for you, since you have not had sex, just saying to allay your anxiety.

I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
