I have a cut on my penis?

For the past few days, the upper part of the shaft (right below the head) of my penis felt like I had a splinter, and today, when I went to urinate, I noticed that there was a small tear right below the head. It exposes some strange white layer beneath the outer skin, and there is something that feels like a splinter (albeit very small) in said cut. I am far too paranoid to go to a doctor, and I want to know if it will heal. Please help, best wishes, cheers.

Assuming it's a small cut, just hold a warm washcloth on it a couple of times a day for a couple of days and see if it improves. You can scratch it on lots of things and not be aware until afterwards.
