Why do white spots on the penis occur along with dryness?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have four white spots on my penis and also the skin there is dry and cracked. I have no burning sensation or pain when I pee and no white discharge from my penis. HIV-1 and HIV-2 tests came negative.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and understand your concern.

Your white spots can be viral warts or molluscum contagiosum. Have you been into some sexual activity that is unsafe? We would advise you to send photographs of that portion with detailed history so that we can help you better.

Thank you.
