Is Fucidin The Right Ointment For Redness At The End Of The Penis?

Hi. My 6 year old son has redness at the end of his penis. I have fucidin ointment which I am sure we were given last time he had this (and told to carefully wash beneath the foreskin). Would this be the right cream? I don t want to use the wrong ointment. Thank you

Hi,
You can apply Fucidin cream on redness area of penis.
This redness can be due to some soreness and infection on glans under foreskin.
This is due to non cleaning of part properly.
Ok and take care.
