What is the reason for the white spots inside the foreskin of the glans penis?

The glans penis is an important part of the male reproductive organ. If you don't pay enough attention to it, it is very likely to affect the health of the reproductive organ and bring certain harm to the body. I believe that many male friends have also found white spots in their glans foreskin, and they don't know what it is. It looks a bit scary. Let's take a look at the causes of white spots in the glans foreskin!

Many patients suspect that they have genital warts when white spots appear on the glans and foreskin. After seeing a doctor, they find out that it is balanoposthitis (inflammation of the glans penis). In fact, balanoposthitis is a common disease. Balanoposthitis is divided into balanoposthitis and glansitis. Because they often appear at the same time, it is called glans penis balanoposthitis. This inflammation can be infectious or non-infectious. Infectious balanoposthitis is more common in clinical practice.

Balanitis: White spots appear on the glans, which are painless and itchy, with a smooth surface and no other rashes. The surrounding pigment is often darker than normal skin color. It is generally a symptom of balanitis, which is manifested by redness and swelling of the foreskin, burning pain, aggravated by urination, and purulent secretions flowing out of the foreskin.

Phimosis: If the foreskin is too long and the foreskin is not washed frequently, the epithelium shed from the inner layer of the foreskin and the surface of the glans penis will accumulate in the foreskin sac to form white smegma. Patients with phimosis are best to go to the hospital for circumcision, which will cure the problem once and for all.

Male friends must pay more attention to the white spots inside the foreskin of the glans. It is best to go to the hospital for examination in time to see if treatment is needed. In addition, everyone must know what is the cause of the white spots inside the foreskin of the glans? Pay attention to prevention in daily life, insist on cleaning your reproductive organs, and develop good hygiene habits.
