Noticed A Red Rash With Itchiness On The Foreskin

Red rash on foreskin. I am a 70 year old male, post graduate degree trained,no longer sexually active, have never had ant STD, been married to same woman forever, and have good hygiene. I have a red rash on the foreskin, on about the first 1/2 inch. It's mildly irritating (itch), non-weepy. Any ideas?
