The symptoms you are describing could be due to a condition called epididymitis, which is inflammation of the epididymis. I recommend taking an over-the-counter pain reliever such as ibuprofen (e.g. Advil) to help with the pain and inflammation.

I'm experiencing a really painful redness on the tip of my penis, and I'm pretty sure it's a bacterial infection.

Would really appreciate some guidance on the best course of action.
