Patient's question:
Recently, I noticed some small, hard bumps growing under the groove where the glans meets the penis, inside the foreskin. They are particularly noticeable during erection, but there is no pain or discomfort, and apart from feeling slightly uncomfortable when touched, there are no other abnormalities. I also have excessive foreskin. What could be the cause?Doctor's answer:
It may be caused by penile pearly papules. Generally, it can subside after a certain period of time. However, you should still pay attention to local hygiene and maintain a dry environment, which is very important. If you require treatment, options include laser therapy, cryotherapy, or applying corrosive topical medications to remove them.
