Based on the situation you provided, it is highly likely that it could be balanoposthitis. This is often related to phimosis. Phimosis can easily lead to the accumulation of smegma, and if hygiene is not maintained, it can cause bacteria to multiply, leading to reproductive infections. If you have phimosis, it is recommended to undergo circumcision promptly after the inflammation subsides to prevent recurrence. In addition to phimosis, other infection causes cannot be ruled out. Therefore, it is advised that you seek medical attention early for examination and symptomatic treatment.
