Many male friends have reported that they recently found some small blisters on their glans for no apparent reason, which made them feel very panicked. In fact, for this symptom, we should have a correct judgment and then undergo necessary diagnosis and treatment to eliminate the symptom. Let me tell you the cause of this symptom!

Analysis of the three main reasons for small blisters on the glans:

1. Genital infection causes small blisters on the glans penis. Male specialists say that the main characteristics of genital blisters include: simple herpes occurring in the genital area, which is a viral infectious skin disease with an incubation period of 2-7 days. It is more common in men on the foreskin, glans penis or coronal sulcus, and occasionally in the urethra. After infection, the genital area often has burning, itching or abnormal sensation before the blisters appear, followed by the local appearance of light red spots or papules, on which sesame to mung bean-sized clusters of tense blisters and erythema appear. The fluid in the blisters is clear at first, and gradually becomes turbid or even purulent. The wall of the blisters is thin, and they erode after breaking, forming small pus-filled blisters with a burning sensation. Some form ulcers, which are painful and more obvious after touching.

2. Symptoms of small blisters on the glans caused by balanitis. Male experts point out that the characteristics of the glans blisters are mainly as follows: In the early stage of balanitis, blisters can be seen on the foreskin and glans, the surface is edematous and congested, the area around the urethra is red and there are wounds and erosions, and it can develop into superficial ulcers, with purulent secretions flowing out. Patients may feel itching or burning in the glans, followed by pain. After erosion, pus may flow and smell bad. Severe cases may also have fatigue, low fever, enlarged inguinal lymph nodes and tenderness. In addition, if it is candidal balanitis caused by fungal infection, the symptoms are erythema of the glans mucosa, local edema, smooth appearance, mild desquamation of the edges, and papules and small abscesses that expand to form glans erosion. Recurrent candidal balanitis can also cause foreskin dryness and cracking, fibrosis and sclerosis of the glans.

3. Pearly penile papulosis also causes small blisters on the glans. Experts say that in clinical practice, blisters on the glans are more common in pearly penile papulosis. This disease is more common in young men aged 20-50 years old. It is characterized by small white, skin-colored or light red papules and blisters on the glans. Each one has a diameter of 1-3mm, is translucent, and looks like a small pearl. The surface is smooth and can be in the shape of a few needle-sized beads, or in the shape of silk or sharp hairs. The rash does not fuse with each other, and is arranged in one or several rows along the coronal groove at the posterior edge of the glans, and can partially or completely surround the glans. The patient has no conscious symptoms.
