Redness(blood) under foreskin after stretching

27 years old.
When younger I was given a cream to stretch my foreskin, it wasn't extremely tight, but tight enough that I couldn't get it back all the way. After using it a while, I stopped using it, was young and didn't understand what I was doing and I sort of wanted to be circumcised. Through my teens and young adult years I ended up stretching it myself enough for it to go back over the head, but just a few months ago I decided Im not happy with it just going back over the head, and that I wanted to stretch it so it could go back all the way.

Well, I got betamethasone (sp?) cream and started using it, and stretching. I ended up breaking the skin in a small section of the tight ring that must have been tighter than the rest and although the skin has healed, it is still white where the skin broke which I assume is just new skin, but underneath this area it is very red which I assume is blood under the skin. All around the ring, when I am semi-erect I can see blood splotches under the skin but in this one area it is very noticable and I am kinda worried about it.

The rational side of me is thinking it is just blood from the skin being stretched so much in such a short period of time, over a 2 month period I stretched the skin from being 1/4 inch behind the head when erect to all the way. It is still tight around the shaft, but it does go back all the way.

Should I be worried? how long until this clears up?
thanks in advance. this is really effing up my sex life as im afraid the ladies will be weirded out by this.
