Is it possible that my son has an infection? If so, can I treat it myself or do I need to see our doctor?

Hello, My 16 month old son seems to have itching on his penis from time to time. At first glance there are no spots. I did notice a little redness on the tip of the foreskin. It doesn't always seem to be uncomfortable but when it happens it seems to hurt. Is it possible that he has an infection?

Hello, thank you for your question, but ol it is virtually impossible to make an opinion without first seeing the lesions to which you refer, which is impossible here. I would therefore recommend that you go to a pharmacy to show the lesions, either directly with your child or, even better, by bringing a photo.
The pharmacist on duty will be able to direct you to the right product based on their observations, or recommend a medical consultation if they feel it is necessary.
Sorry I can't be more helpful at this time.
