Hello doctor,
There are red and itchy tiny bumps all over the tip of the penis and inside the foreskin. What could it be? About three weeks ago, I had the same problem, which disappeared on its own, in about three days.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I think you have balanoposthitis. It is mostly due to candidal fungal infection. This is not contagious, and it is not a serious issue. I suggest you try the following:
Check your fasting and postprandial sugar levels. This should help you.
