Cracked foreskin presents with mild burning, itching, swelling, and red patches, and with tight foreskin (phimosis) cracks or fissures on the foreskin may be due to inflammatory conditions of the foreskin (called posthitis) or head of the penis (balanitis) or both (balanoposthitis) balanitis xerotica obliterans (bxo) is a chronic, progressive, and sclerosing inflammatory foreskin disease of unknown cause. Bxo will produce scars and cracks. Treatment of the cracks is medical (antifungal, antibiotics, and steroids) and surgical (dorsal slit, preputioplasty or circumcision).
