possibly friction burn on penis head.

Hi, I have never had sex before, or any other sexual contact involving my penis.
I do masturbate. I have a slightly pink/red mark on my penis head it is about half a centremetre in size
and it has been there for a long time could be over 4/5 months, but I have still been masturbating while it has been there.
Sometimes it getss darker or lighter but not often, I was wondering if you could help. I thought it may be a yeast infection but most likely a friction burn i thought.

i added a photo to show it.

bobby, I would like to help you, because I suspect, that we have a very similar problem, however, I can barely see any details in the pic you uploaded.
Make a pic that is clear, where I can see the actual problem.
Is it around the penistip? Do you have any problem with looser skin around the area of the injury?

Its not a birth mark tho, I wanna find out what it is, I think its a friction burn and I want to know how long it takes to go, whatever it is.

It wouldn't hurt to go to planned parenthood and have them look anyway. It's free. and you don't need a parent to get tested. Google that ****.

It's nothing. My boyfriend has two on his...It makes it look like his penis has eyes. ANYWAY, it's just like a birthmark to my knowledge. We've been dating long enough that if his little spots were contagious I would've gotten em by now. You're fine. It gives you character! Something unique from the other dudes. Take a breath, you're okay.
