What is the reason for the appearance of red spots on the glans after sex?

Patient's question:

Medical Description: After having sex with my girlfriend without a condom, two red spots about 0.5cm x 2cm appeared on the glans, and 2-3 small red dots near the connection between the foreskin and the glans. They are smooth, painless, and itchy. Thank you, doctor. I appreciate your help.
History of Treatment and Effects: I thought it might be a yeast infection, so I applied some Daktarin. After applying it, the edges of the red spots seemed slightly white, and the spots looked like they were stuck on the surface. The glans became a bit wrinkled. I didn’t do anything else except apply Daktarin for one night. Thank you, doctor. I appreciate your help.

Doctor's answer:

Your current symptoms are mostly caused by balanitis. The causes include: infectious ones often resulting from unsafe sexual contact, such as infection with Candida albicans, Trichomonas vaginalis, Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma genitalium, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, or other bacteria; other factors such as phimosis, poor local hygiene, and trauma infection can also lead to this condition.
Recommendations: Based on your description, it is recommended that you actively visit the department of reproductive infections at a hospital and follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. In daily life, pay attention to local hygiene, drink plenty of water, avoid unsafe sexual contact, and individuals with phimosis should actively consider undergoing circumcision at a hospital.
Wishing you good health.
