hello
Thanks for query .
You have developed infection of the foreskin (Posthatitis) due to infection transmitted through sexual intercourse with your wife who had Vaginitis.
You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefotaxime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily along with topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice daily.
Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily
Ensure to avoid sexual encounters till it heals up completely.
Your wife needs to consult her Gynecologist for per speculum examination and take the necessary treatment .
