Urinary track infection possible.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

The symptoms of discomfort in tip of penis and tingling sensation together with frequent need to urinate are symptoms of urinary track infection.
If possible do an urine analysis to confirm it or better am uroculture which also can show the type of antibiotic which is better used to fight it.
I would have treated you empirically with bactrim twice daily for 5 days.
Also you can use cranberry juice or tea found over the counter in pharmacy to help with disinfection.
Using ibuprofen is very useful to help with symptoms subside the discomfort and help with possible fever.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
