Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Kindly diagnose these lesions on the images I have attached.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Kindly provide me with more details. How did this lesion develop? Have you had any recent history of unprotected, high-risk sexual intercourse? Are you experiencing any discharge from the penis? Do you feel any pain? I have reviewed the image you attached (attachment removed to protect patient identity), It appears that the lesion is vesicular in nature. I hope this has helped you. Kindly follow up if you have more doubts.

Thank you.

Patient's Query

Thank you doctor,

There was some level of risk involved, but I am not experiencing any discharge or pain. Based on my assessment, I do not believe these are warts. I have already undergone a herpes test, and the results were negative. Kindly provide your insight.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I read your query and understood your concern. Based on the information provided, it seems that these are not warts. The negative herpes test result, absence of pain, and lack of systemic symptoms suggest that most common sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) can be ruled out. I have reviewed the image you have attached (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity) and have observed lesions, they appear as wrinkling and one papule. This could potentially be lymphangiectasis of the penis. In many cases, this is a benign condition and may be associated with discharge from the lesion itself. The amount of discharge can vary from minimal to excessive, causing dampness in underwear. Wrinkling is also often present. However, based solely on the available information and pictures, it is not possible to provide a definitive diagnosis. And also I suggest you remain calm as this is not an STD. Lymphangiectasis is typically a self-limiting condition, and no specific treatment is usually necessary. It may be related to sexual activity but is not classified as an STD. If the lesions persist, I suggest you visit a dermatologist for further evaluation of the lesion. I hope this has helped you. Kindly follow up if you have more doubts.

Thank you.
