What causes white spots on the glans?

In daily life, as people lack some sexual knowledge, it is easy to bring great harm to themselves. For example, many teenagers find white spots on their glans. Many of these children are very troubled. The following article will popularize relevant knowledge to everyone.

Based on your symptoms, the possibility of glansitis and penile pearly rash cannot be ruled out. Candidal glansitis causes flushing in the early stage, with pinpoint-sized red papules and rashes scattered on the surface, covered with dot-like cheese-like secretions and pustules, and erosion and exudation in severe cases. Trichomonas glansitis causes erythema and papules in the affected area, which gradually expand and have blisters on the surface, followed by erosion and exudation.

Pearly penile papules are more common in men around 20-30 years old. The damage mainly occurs at the junction of the edge of the glans and the coronal sulcus and/or the frenulum, and is often densely arranged in one or more rows, which are obvious on the dorsal side of the glans and can partially or completely surround the glans.

The color of the lesions is mostly pearly white, a few are light red, skin-colored, and some may be slightly red and swollen. There is no tenderness, no rupture, and the patient has no conscious symptoms. The recommended home care measures are to soak with 1/5000 potassium permanganate solution and apply anti-inflammatory ointment.

When you learn that there are small white spots on the glans, you should first consider whether it is a sexually transmitted disease caused by unclean sex life and whether you have had sexual contact. You should also conduct different degrees of examinations based on whether you have symptoms, allergies, etc.
