What causes small spots on the glans?
Disease description:
Recently, I noticed small spots appearing on my boyfriend's glans. I'd like to consult about what might be causing this.
Small spots on the glans may have various causes, with skin inflammation or infection being common. These could be caused by bacteria, fungi, or other pathogens, and may be accompanied by itching, pain, or a burning sensation. Additionally, allergic reactions or irritation might also lead to similar symptoms. If the spots are painless and without other symptoms, they could be benign conditions such as pearly penile papules. To ensure an accurate diagnosis, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional for an in-person examination and relevant laboratory tests. Based on medical advice, appropriate treatments—such as topical medications, oral drugs, or other therapies—should be adopted, along with maintaining good personal hygiene to promote recovery.
