Weird recurring redness on my penis head

[davidka]

Alright .. so i have this problem
Im 18 years old and for the past 2 months or so ive been experiencing this condition on my penis head. It all started one morning at the end of august, when i notices that my penis head had these pinkish red blotches in random areas of the head (not raised) but this cleared up by the end of the day. I started noticing that my glans was looking wrinkly and felf more sensitive. As days past it didnt change much but i started noticing little tiny red dots that were under the the glands skin but they arent raised or anything, you can just see them. My glands eventually was covered in these red dots that didnt hurt at all, werent itch and pretty much had no discomfort exept for my confidence. See the weird part however is that some days it completely goes away and my penis looks normal, but it always seems to return.
It also seems like the skin on my glands is dry because it kinda looks shiny and wrinkly at times.
i must say that the redness is most focust on the top side of the head and usually when it gets really irrated or red it focuses in the top area but you can still see the tinny red dots on the sides of the head .
im thinking that this redness is just made up of millions of the tinny red dots becuase when it starts clearing up you can see how the tiny red dots start dissappearing. Im not sure if ths may be linked to the skin conditions but i rarly get this quick pain in my testicles. It only lasts a second but it can reccur sometimes for a bit than completly goes away. I know this is a very discriptive question but if anyone else has experienced this and can tell me when it goes away or what can help it that would be great. One last thing, when my penis is fully hard .. i mean fully hard .. my penis head looks really red and get irritated from masterbation, you can also that these head is not smooth like it used to be 3 months ago ...... whhatttsss goingg onn ... cause my syptoms dont match all the stds ive red up on

ive had the same problem for two years now exactly how u guys decribe it. i was tested for everything from chlamydia to trichominosis and nothing has ever come up. I went to this doctor overseas in Europe and told me it was a bacteria and treated me with herbs, for about six months all sympotms went away but when i ran out of the herbs it started to come back so i feel like i haven't been cured all the way. this has been bothering me more and more so i will call him and find out what the bacteria is called and how to treat it, regardless guys u shouldn't worry its not life threatening or an std but it is very annoying as you all know. A list of possibles i came up with are Balanitis, Trichominosis(which i thought it was because all the symptoms seemed to point to it, but after taking pills for 2 weeks still same result), yeast infection which also fits the description, and pudendal neuropathy (PN) which also known as cyclist's syndrome, pudendal canal sydrome, or alcock's syndrome. This was described as nerve damage and can be cured but not too many doctors know about it which is why we are all having this problem, you guys can look into it at www.pudendal.info and there are specialists listed that can take care of this problem, i will also look into this and hopefully this annoying problem can go away. hope this helps and good luck to us all keep ur heads up its nothing major but best to get rid of it

Ok, i have these exact symptoms and im 17 and have not had intercourse, so im sure its not an STD. But these sites give out such little help, everytime its one generic response, with no real answer or solution. These doctors need to start getting real

[blackrattlesnake]

this is exactly what I have, The tip also gets really dry and cracked and when I have intercourse many times in one day, the red areas sometimes break.
Did anything work for anyone as yet?

I have this same thing only my red spots seem to be a little bigger than the 'tiny' ones you describe, but other than that, I have it as well.  I have no idea what it is, but it is comforting that i'm not the only one dealing with it!  If anyone finds a cure/treatment, please keep us posted!

I also have the same problem and i dont know what it is. There not raised but my penis head is red and it is made up of alot of red spots. I have been with my girlfriend for 19 months and they just appeared recently. Please help anyone. The redness oes away if you press the area then comes back

[Patterson09]

This is the exact same thing I have!

Every detail down to the change in texture. Did you find a cure or cause for this?

Now, is that just a general message that gets sent out to everyone or did you actually read all my symptoms

Hello,
Without examination, confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but it can be contact dermatitis, rash due to friction rub, folliculitis, cysts ,molluscum contagiosum(multiple, small, dome-shaped papules, often with a central depression or plug) or genital warts(caused by HPV infection). It does not sound like any STD.

Apply warm compresses, Neosporin ointment and calamine lotion and avoid messing with it. You  can take anti-inflammatory pain killers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen. If the lumps persist then it will be best to get it evaluated from a dermatologist.

I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted in case you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
