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

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

There are a few little things around my glans. I think I have hirsuties coronae glandis. What can I do about it? Is it contagious? Please explain.

Answered by Dr. Gopinath

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Hirsuties coronae glandis (pearly penile papule) are normal findings in men. Kindly confirm it with a urologist or venereologist after a proper physical evaluation. It is not contagious. If you are too concerned about it, then the treatment option is CO2 laser ablation.
