What Causes Recurring Itching And Peeling In Skin Of Penis?

so my penis is red itchy and the skin is peeling like a sunburn, this has happened before and hydrocortisone topical agent has been used to treat it like a fungal infection, however since it reoccurs every six or eight months or so is it possible it may be a skin condition?
