Q. After laser treatment of penile papules, my penis has become dark. Is it normal?
Hi doctor,
I am 24 years old. I had pearly papules on my glans penis a long time ago. I got them removed three months ago by a dermatologist with CO2 laser. Now, bottom of the glans penis is very dark purple in color. I have tried to put some gels on it, but had no success with that. I will attach the picture of my glans. Is this normal? Please tell me your professional opinion.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have gone through the attached picture and provided details (attachment removed to protect patient identity).
- I feel the discoloration at glans is completely normal and there is no problem with it either in the near future or distant future other than a cosmetic concern.
- In fact, it is possible that this is a healed scar of the papules that you had long time ago or some medication side effect.
- There is a high possibility that it may stay for longer duration. So, it is important to reduce your worries about it.
