Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic

I am Dr. Kakkar. I have gone through your query. I would like to gather more information.

-Is it itchy?
-Can you upload an Image?
-Does your sexual partner suffer from vaginal discharge Or vulval pruritus?

Seems most likely to be a case of candidal balanoposthitis

I would suggest an oral antifungal e.g fluconazole 150 mg, single dose.

Topically you could use clotrimazole+steroid combination lotion or cream e.g clotrimazole + beclomethasone lotion (Clotrin-B lotion Or Cream), twice daily for 7 days.

Avoid sexual contact for a week
