What should I do if there are particles on the glans? What is the reason for small bumps on the glans?

When something unusual happens to the male genitals, people are often reluctant to speak out, but over time, it can turn into an increasingly serious problem. Here are some of the reasons why pimples appear on the glans penis:

Experts analyze the color and shape of small particles as follows:

1) White or pink small particles on the glans: White or light pink small particles of different shapes appear on the male glans, which are not painful or itchy, and have a smooth surface without other rashes. They are usually caused by penile pearly rash or phimosis. If small particles appear accompanied by redness, swelling and pain of the penis, purulent secretions may flow out of the foreskin opening, and local manifestations may include edema, erythema, erosion, exudation and even bleeding. If secondary bacterial infection occurs, it may turn into purulent and form an ulcerated surface, which is often balanitis.

2) Red or dark red small particles on the glans: Single or several red small particles appear on the glans of the male penis. They may be round, ring-shaped or irregular in shape, with clear boundaries, slightly high and hard. Sometimes there may be erosion, scab or papillary hyperplasia, which is more common in condyloma acuminatum. If accompanied by rupture, pus or serous secretion, it often indicates syphilis. Erythema appears, followed by multiple groups of red papules on the basis of the erythema, and it feels hot and itchy. Soon they may become small blisters. After a few days, the blisters become purulent and may produce erosion after rupture. This is genital herpes.

Break through several common diseases that cause small particles to grow on the male glans.

Common symptoms (I): Phimosis. According to experts from Beijing Jianguo Hospital, phimosis is one of the reasons for the growth of small particles on the glans penis. Because the foreskin cannot be turned up when it is phimosis or too long, the sebum accumulates in the gap between the inner surface of the foreskin and the glans penis. At the same time, urine will also penetrate into this gap and react chemically with the sebum to become smegma. Chronic irritation of smegma can easily induce white particle symptoms, as well as a foreign body sensation or hard lumps in the local foreskin.

Common symptoms (II): Balanitis. Balanitis refers to inflammation of the inner layer of the foreskin and the glans penis. It can be caused by various pathogens, smegma irritating the foreskin and glans penis, and other factors. When men are infected with Candida, it often causes balanitis, resulting in symptoms such as small particles growing on the glans penis. It is often caused by the spouse suffering from Candida vaginitis or by unclean sexual intercourse.

Common symptoms (III): Condyloma acuminatum. Condyloma acuminatum is a relatively common sexually transmitted disease. Condyloma acuminatum mostly grows on the mucous membrane of the external genitalia or at the junction of the mucous membranes, but can also grow around the anal margin, and is mostly caused by unclean sexual intercourse. Condyloma acuminatum infection is initially a pale red or dirty red millet-sized growth, with a papule-like, nipple-like, cauliflower-like, or cockscomb-like shape, with granules on the surface, and the surface is moist or bleeding. There is often pus concentrated between the granules, emitting a foul odor, and can be purulent after scratching.

Warm reminder: There are many causes of small particles on the glans of the penis, ranging from general inflammatory infections to sexually transmitted diseases, which are very harmful. Therefore, if you find small particles on the glans, you must actively and scientifically treat them.
