Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to balanitis.

It is an infection of the head of the penile area.

I recommend using a steroid lotion for local application.

I also recommend washing the area with unscented soap.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
