After masturbation, red spots appeared on the head of the penis, without pain or itching. What should I do?

Patient's question:

What is the reason for small red spots on the head of the penis after masturbation that don't hurt or itch?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are many small red spots on the glans, but they are not painful or itchy. It is suspected to be balanitis caused by excessive prepuce. The main reason is the accumulation of smegma, as the sebaceous glands of the prepuce also secrete sebum. If it is not cleaned in a timely manner, it can easily form smegma. Smegma is prone to causing inflammation and producing a strong odor. It is recommended that you avoid sexual activity for the time being, as it can easily lead to mutual infection.
