NO: Don't worry you will not get penile cancer, so many other factors involved to get one , age ( not at 25 ) , personal hygiene , not cleaning fore skin , exposure to carcinogens like chimney sweeping etc , uncommon in western world, you rash may some allergic reaction from detergents , under wear go and see your doctor and keep you mind at ease.

unlikely: Sounds like a local reaction to something you've been exposed to.
