I would suggest a dermatologist first to investigate other treatments. If necessary, your dermatologist can refer you to an urologist.

I would contact the dermatologist and/or ask your primary Dr to help you to get a diagnosis or who to see. Yes a urologist might help as well or recommend circ. Likely you will need to see a couple specialists

see another dermatologist first, if he can save your precious foreskin. urologist will want to cut you. my old experimented physician saved mine for 2 years with the good treatments, then when he retired the new physician gave me the wrong treatments and sent me to the urologist who cut me
