Hello doctor,
I have a personal question regarding my foreskin. There are small round red and white painless spots there, and it does not cause any pain whatsoever. I wanted to know is it something I should be worried about?

Hello doctor,
Thank you for replying. I have these spots from around a month. I have never had sex, as I am still a virgin. I do not have any symptoms, it does not pain, itch or burn when I touch. I do not have any other lesions. Neither do I have any other disease, I am just overweight. I am not under any treatment, and it is the first time that I am getting these spots. And I do not have an inguinal swelling.
Hi,

Thank you for the follow-up query.
Are you able to retract the foreskin? If yes, then it is a good sign.
Otherwise, if it is difficult or not retractable, then consult your doctor for examination and management. It may be phimosis, for which a simple procedure like slitting or circumcision may be needed.
In either of the situation, I suggest you try doing the following.

Hello doctor,
Thank you for replying. Yes, I am able to retract my foreskin easily with no pain. Do I still need to visit any doctor for examination? What is that white or red patch on my penis? I have sent a photo. Is it an infection or STD? Can it be caused by the friction during masturbation? Can you give me the name of the ointment that I should apply? How many times a day should I use the cream? Is it something serious or will it go away in some time if proper hygiene is maintained?Â

Hello doctor,
Thanks for relieving my worries by saying it is nothing serious. Should I avoid masturbation till this is cured? Can I apply that cream on it directly? Is it safe for use on penis? How much cream should I apply and how many times? Would you suggest any other tablets for the same? Thank you once again.
