Patient's question:
The glans has red spots, but there is no pain or itching. I don't know what's going on?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your condition, there may be a possibility of proliferative erythema. The cause of proliferative erythema is unclear, but it primarily occurs in individuals with excessive prepuce, suggesting a correlation with excessive prepuce and irritation from smegma. In some cases, the erythema naturally disappeared after circumcision. Therefore, it is recommended that all individuals with this condition undergo routine circumcision. Additionally, this condition is also known as proliferative erythema or red hypertrophic disease. You should seek medical attention at the urology department of a hospital as soon as possible. If you have excessive prepuce, you should consider undergoing circumcision.
