Does An Insect Bite On The Penis Cause Further Infections?

An insect bite on the penis. He was bitten 2days ago at night time. He said it has swollen for an hour or two then it got back to normal. Yesterday he saw a black dot on the side of the hole of the penis, that seems to be the reason of the swelling (the bite). Is it safe just to leave it alone or should he get some medical attention? Thanks.

Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
Usually it subsided by a day/two. If not susided then visit doctor for antibiotic medications to prevent infection. All the best. You can apply oint soframyci locally over there for this.
