Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
What problem you could be facing appears to be superficial infection of skin over foreskin.
Kindly do the following to overcome it.
1. Clean the area with mild antiseptic solution like Savlon twice daily.
2. After drying with a clean towel, apply Neomycin skin cream as a gentle layer.
3. Take antiinflammatory Tablet. Ibuprofen twice daily after food.
4. Wear loose fitting undergarments to provide proper ventilation and to avoid friction.
5. Abstain from sexual activities till the lesions heal completely.
Gradually, your symptoms should subside and should be back to normal.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
