Pearly penile papules are benign harmless lesions. Do not use self-medication. It will worsen the lesions. Attach the picture of lesion for a better clinical view.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I have seen the pictures (attachment removed to protect patient identity). These are pearly penile papules, which are pearly white dome shaped papules present circumferentially on the coronal margins of glans penis. They are more seen in uncircumcised males. Its differential diagnosis is hypertrophic sebaceous gland. On histopathology, dermal proliferation of fibroblast in collagenous stroma, decreased elastic fibers, and dilated blood vessels are seen (in PPP). PPP are angiofibroma and occurs in 50 percent of males (skin-colored, smooth, rounded, 1 to 3 cm papules around coronal sulcus of glans). No treatment is necessary. If the patient wants treatment, laser ablation or shave excision under medical supervision is done. Cryotherapy or electrofulguration may be done. Other differential is condyloma acuminata or papilloma.
