What Might Have Caused Red Rash And Irritation In My Penis?

Just got home from a water park. Was there for about 4 hours. I had these swimming trunks on that have an underwear type thing inside and is tight on my penis. While swimming I started to realize it was irritating my pen is so I went to the bathroom to fix it and I saw a red rash on the tip of my pen is. Can u explain what it may be and what I can use to treat this asap thank you.

Hi, the rash could be due to the tight trunks or due to infected water. If its due to the clothing it should be alright in a few days. If its due to infection it might break into a sore or an ulcer or start itching and you would require to see a Doctor or your GP. So, my advice is that if it has not gone after a day or so then see your Doctor who can examine you and advice the best.
Take care,
