Question : Hello, I’m concerned over three blank reddish spots on the glands of my penis. Two of them I think I have had for a long time but the third bigger one I don’t think is more than half a year. I thought earlier that the two smaller dots came from too much masturbating. I’m 31 years old and have only had sexual relationship with my wife. The smaller dots were there before I had sex for the first time. It don’t itch or is painful just look disturbing. I thought for a while that it was poor hygiene that caused it but cleaning the penis in lukewarm water every day for the last three weeks has not removed it. Do you know what it is?
