Patient's question:
A small bump on the head of the penis, sometimes itchy, what is this sexually transmitted disease?Doctor's answer:
Hello, your condition is considered to be related to molluscum contagiosum. Molluscum contagiosum presents clinically as white, flesh-colored, or pale red papules that do not coalesce, arranged in one or several rows along the coronal sulcus of the glans. Clinically, it is thought to be associated with phimosis and chronic inflammatory stimulation. It is a physiological variation in development, neither a tumor nor a sexually transmitted disease. This condition does not cause any adverse consequences and generally does not require treatment.
