I'm having this problem with red marks on the glans of my penis and the foreskin. Sometimes it's itchy, and it seems to go away but then comes back. Also, there are times when the foreskin feels really tight. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

I've got these three rash spots near my genitals, like right on my thigh. They're ring-shaped, different sizes, and super itchy. I'm worried they might not just be a skin irritation. Could it be something like a fungal infection or something else I need to get checked out? What do you think?
