Hello
Thanks for query .Based on the facts that you have posted I would say that this is is due to infection.

You need to take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefexine along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily.along with topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice daily.

Ensure to wash your genitals with warm water twice daily

It should get cured within a week.
