The irritation has to probably have something to do with the skin being overstimulated - some guys are just more sensitive - after sex I would possibly consider applying a cool compress to the tip for a few moments and also gently cleanse the tip.
I know some women who have to "wipe down" immediately after sex to avoid having irritation or even frequent vaginitis.
Just get in the habit and see if it helps.
