Hello
Thanks for query .

The itching of the foreskin and red spots is mostly due to fungal infection of genital (Genital Candidiasis) .

In most of the cases uncontrolled Diabetes presents with itching and rash over foreskin .

You need to check your blood sugar levels test on empty stomach and 2 hours after lunch done to rule out diabetes .

You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac and anti fungal medicine Fluconazole twice daily .along with topical anti fungal cream like Candid twice daily.
     
Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily.

Ensure to avoid sexual encounters till it heals up completely.

Proper control of diabetes with medication is the only longer lasting solution to avoid recurrence .
