Just a repost with a picture...
Hi, the glans of my penis has not looked uniform in colour for the last year or so. No pain, itching or discomfort just doesnt look very nice. I do have allergy to hair dye which I think triggered off the problem over a year ago and at that time did have a severe reaction in the form of hives which i think had an effect on the glans also.
The head of my penis used to be unform pink shade (normal!)...now red bloches which on some days appears worse then others. Help/ advice appreciated. Thanks.
I cannot confirm anything without examination but it can be Fordyce spots, freckle, lentigo, penile melanotic macule or penile melanosis. Melanosis is the benign pigmentation of the mucosal surface of the penis. The area is flat, and stable. Biopsy, if performed, will show clusters of melanocytes with a benign appearance. Lentigo is a small, sharply circumscribed, pigmented macule surrounded by normal-appearing skin.
I suggest you to get an examination done from a dermatologist.
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.
