Hi,
Fissuring on prepuce after masturbation may be due to candidal infection of prepuce and glans penis..called candidal balanoposthitis. Avoid masturbation and blow job for few months. Take antifungal like ketoconazole tab for few weeks. Apply antifungal cream like clotrimazole. Avoid soap bath. Take Sitz bath in dettol mixed water to improve genital hygiene.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
