Red spot on penile shaft
hello, I have had a small, reddish, slightly raised spot on my penile shaft (underside of shaft, about half way/two-thirds up toward the head) for the past few months. I've always had fordyce spots, but this spot is a bit more pronounced than the others. I've been tested for STDs (all negative) and recently went to the dermatologist to have it checked. The doctor said it didn't look like a wart and more like a normal skin variant/"blip" on the skin. He didn't give me an actual diagnosis, but said I shouldn't worry about it. It's never grown or spread, but due to it's prominence I'm still a little worried. Any thoughts?
