Annular erosive glans: The glans and prepuce inflammation and damage are ring-shaped, or the ring has cheese-like smegma, which is easy to break into superficial ulcers over time. If the ring-shaped characteristics are lost, it is difficult to distinguish from superficial glans. This disease can exist alone or as a mucosal symptom of Reiter syndrome.

Plasmocytic glansitis: Common in middle-aged people, it is a chronic inflammation of single or multiple lesions that lasts for a long time. The damage is plaque-like, with a smooth or flaky or moist surface, and obvious infiltration. The boundary is clear and not easy to break, and small spots like chili powder can be seen on the surface. The appearance is difficult to distinguish from proliferative erythema of the glans.

Mica-like and keratotic pseudoepitheliomatous glansitis: The glans is damaged, infiltrated and hypertrophic, with hyperkeratosis and mica-like crusts. The affected area loses its normal elasticity and atrophies over time. Histopathology shows hyperkeratosis, hypertrophy of the spinous layer, and elongated epidermal processes showing pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia.
