Friction Burn On Penis, Have Follicle Bumps, Been Masturbating. Am I Okay?

I have what seems to be a possible friction burn on the top side of my penis . It has some very very small almost hair folicle red bumps beside it. I have had a problem in the past of rubbing it raw during sex or masterbation. It usually seems to heal in 3-5 days. In this case it is almost a crater type of wound, basically the top layer of skin is gone. It is in a position to where my underwear constantly rub it. It is painful, kind of a constant rubbing on a sore kind of pain. Would be willing to guess it is just a friction burn from sex and masterbation?

hello,
yes these are friction burn due to sex or masturbation but if these are large open try to save them by applying topical antibiotics.
