Can't diagnose: with the info available. Do not know if this is yeast without getting more history and visualizing. But is your penis is inflammed and painful - do recommend assessment. You can start with your PCM. Take care.

Male yeast infection: Usually only non-circumcised men get yeast infections under the foreskin. Pulling back the foreskin will show some "white slimy stuff" which can be yeast. If this continues, see your healthcare provider.
