Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have itching on under surface of glans penis and your foreskin is red and thick .

Many a times itching of the genitals is a presenting symptom of Diabetes .

Please get your blood sugar tests on empty stomach and 2 hours after lunch done to rule out diabetes .
If you turn out to be diabetic you will need to take opal hypoglycemic drugs as per advise of a qualified Physician,

In the mean while take anti fungal medication like Fluconozole and topical anti fungal jelly for local application .
