Hello,
Purplish color of glans penis is normal in some children. If he is not having complaints like burning micturition, reddish color of glans, something oozing, etc., then there is nothing to worry.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Khan Shoeb Mohammad Sher Mohammad
