General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
Tight foreskin, inability to retract, small painful cuts indicate that you have phimosis, with balanoposthitis.
I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Consult a General Surgeon.
Get Circumcision done as this is the only sure-shot treatment for such a condition.
Till then keep the area clean and dry.
Apply liquid povidone iodine.
Get the blood and urine tested so that any problems be rectified with an appropriate management before going for surgery.
I find this answer helpful
