Brief Answer:
Balanoposthitis most likely.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query and Pictures. Your problem is most likely Balanoposthitis. It can be due to fungal and bacterial infection due to accumulation of smegma. No need to worry about it. It is easily manageable.

Using ointments or creams with combination of anti fungal like miconazole , anti bacterial like neomycin and corticosteroid like beclamethasone for local application will be helpful. Wash the area with warm water or warm saline after gentle retraction.

You should also better check your blood sugar levels. Diabetics are more prone to get this.

If there is no improvement consult a general surgeon , you may need oral antibiotics.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.

That is most likely due to fungal infection only. Combined anti fungal, anti bacterial anti inflammatory ointments will be helpful to get rid off it.
