Irritation: The tip of your son's has been irritated by sitting in a wet bathing suit as well as being irritated by the chlorine in the pool water. It is not necessary to call your doctor. Try getting him out of the wet bathing suit as soon as you can and apply an antibiotic ointment to his penis tip four times a day.
