Hello
Thanks for query .
Based on the facts that you have posted your son seems to have developed infection of Foreskin (Posthatitis).
You need to give him broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefotaxime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily along with topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice daily.
Ensure to wash his genitals with warm water twice daily.
