Dear Tim:
Thanks for your question. You are trying to find out about penile bleeding. I suppose you mean bleeding from the urethra. Such a symptom must always be evaluated by an urologist, because it may be due to the infection, stones, vessel rupture, prostate problem or some kind of cancer. The urologist who will most likely perform some urine tests, x-rays and cystoscopy (looking inside the urinary passage with a small instrument).
Without examining you, it is difficult to be more specific than the above-mentioned list.
Hope this information will help you. Best of luck.
