How Can Penis Abrasion Causing Soreness And Bleeding Be Treated?

Hi my 7 year old son had a knock at school on his penis. It was very sore Sat night so took him to ED they discovered an abrasion on the tip and they said to leave it and it should heal itself. I am just a bit worried as it has been bleeding, not alot but he is not circumcised and the area being moist, on how to treat this. Should I take him to our GP.or see how things progress?

Pediatrician 's  Response
You may ask your doctor to prescribe antibiotic ointment to apply over the wound. As the area is moist there are chances of infection.
