Hi,
If you had unprotected sex - need to rule out sexually transmitted infection. If not it can be due to dryness due to soap or dry masturbation or forceful sex. Also, check for blood sugar. Local application of antifungal with steroid can help you.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
