Hi there.

It appears like he has an infection of a boil on the penis the infection can spread if it is not controlled with appropriate medical care like antibiotics and aseptic precautions.

Kindly show him to a doctor and get this condition treated before the infection spreads to his blood stream.

Warm compress can be done and over the counter anti inflammatory Medicine life Ibuprofen can be taken for the pain.

Thanking you.

Regards,

Dr. Aashish Raghu
