Hello, the condition you mentioned is likely caused by mold, leading to balanoposthitis. It is necessary for you to go to the hospital for a thorough examination. After diagnosis, symptomatic treatment should be provided, which will help in the recovery of your condition.Medical Advice: You can use a 15,000 potassium permanganate solution for soaking and apply ointment for symptomatic treatment. Once the condition improves, you can consider undergoing circumcision at a later date.
