Hello,
It could be balanitis.
We have to rule out other causes like STD.
As of now, you can apply topical antibiotics like Mupirocin after cleaning with soap and water.
If symptoms persist better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
