Abrasions on Penis

On the head of my penis on the left side of my body i have 3-4 red circular marks. they look somewhat like abrasions but i'm not sure what they are exactly. i thought it might be a yeast infection, as i don't have any of the symptoms of an std "fever, flu-like symptoms, itching, rash, pain etc." i stopped having sex and masturbating for about a week but they didnt seem to go away. can anyone tell me what they might be? abrasion from too much sex and masturbation? or something worse *eek*
also occasionally the layer of skin on top of the abrasions lifts up and i can peal it off almost like the crust on bread.

Thanks ... there is no pain or any irritation on the area as such; I have had it for nearly a month so didnt think it might be allergy.. so can assume fungal.. but will get it checked out.. thanks once again

It could be irritation, a fungal infection, an allergic reaction, etc.  Its not sounding a lot like an std, but you should get it checked to be sure.
