What is the reason for the growth on the penis?

The penis is a very important reproductive organ for men. If there is any abnormality, it will be discovered in time. For example, when something grows on the penis, men will be very nervous, fearing that they have some serious disease, so they are very concerned about the cause of the growth on the penis and hope to be able to treat it better. So, what is the reason for the growth on the penis? Let's take a detailed look below.

There are three main possible diseases for small bumps or particles on the penis: genital herpes, condyloma acuminatum and pearly papules. Some of these three diseases require immediate treatment, while others do not need to be treated at all.

1. Genital herpes is common on the glans penis, scrotum and inner thighs, with many millet-sized papules, blisters and small red bumps, which may merge into pieces. Some may break and become erosions or ulcers, causing itching and pain.

2. The symptoms of early condylar warts and pearly papules are very similar. There are light red or flesh-colored warts on or around the glans and penis. The shapes are papule-like, nipple-like, cauliflower-like, cockscomb-like, etc. The warts are delicate, slightly pointed at the top, and painless. This is also a problem that many people worry about, because one is viral and the other is benign.

3. Pearly papules have symptoms similar to condyloma acuminatum, but are benign growths that are not contagious and will not grow or cluster in a short period of time.

The above is an introduction to what is going on when something grows on the penis. I hope it will help you understand it. If something grows on a man's penis, it can be considered to be caused by these diseases, but the situation of each man is different. It is best to go to a regular andrology hospital for further diagnosis. Only after the cause is found and effective measures are taken for treatment can more serious consequences be avoided.
