Hello Jai,

These symptoms are associated with Balanitis, which often occurs due to factors like poor hygiene, fungal or bacterial infections, or skin conditions.

Treatment Options:

  1. Keep the area clean using warm water
  2. Avoid harsh soaps or chemicals that may cause an allergic reaction.
  3. Treatments may include medication, and in some cases, circumcision may be recommended.
