Brief Answer:
May be due to penile irritation.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and here is my advice.

As per your history it may be due to penile irritation.

For that I would suggest you to apply hydrocortisone ointment locally and take tablet acetaminophen 500 mg three times a day. These medications should be available over the counter.

Kindly avoid use of harsh soap and other products including detergents. Use loose cotton clothes. Maintain proper hygiene.

Kindly watch for symptoms like fever, penile discharge, itching, redness, burning micturation. In that case you may require detailed medical examination and physician's opinion.

Let me know I can assist you further...

Dr Shyam Kale.
