Dear,
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Cracks, fissures and erosions in the penis can also lead to secondary bacterial infection. Fissuring can be either the inner part of foreskin or the outer part and also involve with swelling. The Causes could be:

Excessiv washing
Repetitive Friction during Sex
Rough frequent masturbation
Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus
Balanoposthitis etc

I suggest you, it is always better and healthy, to consult a skin specialist or urologist for diagnosis and treatment. Do not self diagnose and self treat.
