Patient's question:
It has been more than 5 years, and there is no pain, no discomfort, no odor. The part of the foreskin that used to cover the glans had many small spots. The area with small spots is relatively sensitive when touched. Could you please ask the doctor how patients are usually treated?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, a comprehensive analysis is conducted; the area of the glans has many small spots, which are neither painful nor itchy. This condition is likely related to pearl spots. Pearl spots are a benign condition, and in some cases, they may fade over a certain period of time, while in others, they may remain unchanged for decades. Since pearl spots are non-communicable and do not affect health, they do not require treatment. However, to prevent the condition from worsening, prevention and proper care are key. If the cause is phimosis, it is advisable to address the phimosis early on. Treatment options include laser therapy, cryotherapy, or the application of corrosive topical medications to remove them. A 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution can be used for cleaning, and under the guidance of a doctor, medications such as ciprofloxacin can be taken.
