What should I do if the baby's penis swells when urinating?

Patient's question:

My child has been complaining of discomfort recently. He says it hurts when he urinates from the lower body. I took a quick look and noticed only a little redness, so I didn't pay much attention. A few days later, the swelling in his lower body when urinating became more noticeable. I don't know what medicine to apply to help him. I need to take him to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
What kind of help is needed: What disease does my son have, and can it be cured?

Doctor's answer:

It might be a urinary tract infection. Pay attention to exercising, strengthening your body, stabilizing the body's protective functions, and completely eliminating various contributing factors. Third, change poor hygiene habits. Educate children not to hold their urine, as holding it provides an opportunity for bacteria to grow and adapt; teach children the correct wiping method. If you have a urinary tract infection, your diet should be light, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and eat more vegetables and fruits. Rest and drink plenty of water, urinate frequently, and ensure your daily urine output is over 1500 milliliters.
