Hi,
* As per my surgical experience, the issue of redness with burning in penis indicates balanitis with different possible bacteria or fungal infection.
* Need precise oral antibiotics, antifungal, anti-inflammatory medicines to cure at earliest.
* Clean the genitals with antiseptic liquid, maintain hydration with plenty of liquids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
