What are the red spots on the glans?

Why do men have red spots on their glans? Normally, the glans of men are clean and free of foreign matter. If you notice red spots of varying sizes on your glans, you should pay attention to it. This may be caused by an infection and you need to go to the hospital for treatment.

Why are there red spots on the glans?

Annular rupture of glans: Patients with annular rupture of glans will have annular erythema on the foreskin of the glans of the male genitals, which will gradually expand and produce atrophic purulent spots as the symptoms worsen. Secondary infection will cause small ulcers, which will secrete white purulent secretions with a strong odor. When the wound is rubbed, it will cause pain and discomfort to the patient.

Candidal balanitis: Papules and erythema appear on the patient's glans, which gradually expand with clear edges. There are small blisters the size of a needle tube on the erythema. When the symptoms worsen, erosions will occur.

Candida albicans balanitis: Patients with candida albicans balanitis will develop a smooth erythema on the genitals, with small blisters appearing. The edges of the erythema are clear, and there are erosions and exudates in subacute onset.

Doctor's Tip: The cause of the male glans erythema needs to be confirmed after examination. After the patient finds out the cause of the disease, he should cooperate with the doctor's treatment and do not delay the treatment opportunity. If the glans erythema is not treated, the symptoms will worsen and easily infect other reproductive organs, causing symptoms, which is harmful to the patient.
