Thanks for contacting HCM.

You are concerned about skin changes to your foreskin. This reaction sounds like you have an infection. I recommend that you see a doctor and be tested for sexual transmitted diseases and get a skin culture for staph infection.

Hope this answers your question. Please contact us again with your health care concerns and questions
