What Causes Itching In The Penis Of A Child?

My grandson had a virus which caused him to have a respitory failure and subsequent treatment in intensive care with ventolin and antibiotics. He then had an ear infection a week after release from hospital which necessitated more antibiotics. He is almost three years old and has a very itchy penis after urinating. He is allergic to egg which we take care not to give him in any form whatsoever. He does ride his bike a lot during the day.
