Patient's question:
I have a few small white spots on my foreskin.Doctor's answer:
Problem Analysis: White spots on the glans are generally a symptom of balanoposthitis, which is characterized by redness, swelling, and burning pain of the glans and foreskin, worsening during urination, and may involve purulent discharge from the foreskin opening. The most common cause of white spots on the glans in many men is infection due to insufficient hygiene of the penis. Because phimosis can lead to the accumulation of a significant amount of smegma, it greatly affects the cleanliness of the penis, thereby increasing the likelihood of white spots on the glans.Suggestions: Be aware that chemicals in soaps, detergents, and other cleaning products can also cause white spots on the glans. Phimosis has many harmful effects, so it is recommended to undergo phimosis surgery at a regular hospital as early as possible.
