i have problem as i am having spots on penis .I enquired so he (doc) told 2 me that its due to defiency of vitamin a .he told me to take mutivitamin supplement and further told me that number will not increase .Now after one year i realized they increased no irritation nothing no itching.

I am little worried as i took suppliment for fifteen days approximately.

Hello,
Please explain about the spots in detail so that a confirmatory diagnosis can be made. Without examination, confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but it can be folliculitis, contact dermatitis, rash due to friction rub with clothes, dermatitis (atopic, contact, allergic),excessive sweating causing sweat dermatitis or balanitis (due to an underlying infection (bacterial and fungal as well as other organisms) .Even genital warts cannot be ruled out as it is spread through direct skin-to-skin contact during oral, genital, or anal sex with an infected partner.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
