Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
There are small flat bumps on penis. Is it herpes? I had rather rough sex with a partner a week before noticing these. I have been tested before and it has been negative and I have never had this before.
Please help.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I am not going in favour of herpes.It looks like initial stages of penile lichen planus (attachment has been removed to protect patient identity). Herpes genitalis starts with a fluid filled blisters and do not remain for so long.
Thank you.

Hi doctor,
Thank you for your reply.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I would suggest Mometasone cream twice daily. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her, and take medications with their consent. There is nothing to worry and it is not a communicable disease. So, no problem with intercourse. Prognosis is unpredictable with permanent remission in a few cases.
Thank you.
