Posted on Mon, 14 Sep 2015
Question: i have small dry flat patch on the tip of my penis also sometimes red and barely noticeable that appeared about 2 years ago, i thought this was due to pinching it in an awkward position at work (construction) causing the tip of my penis to bleed slightly. shortly after a small flesh coloured raised bump also grew on my lower lip. can the two be related ? i can provide pictures

Brief Answer:
The two lesions are not related

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

Dear Sir

the two lesion are definitely not related to each other. The lesion on lower lip is due to retention of secretions. They should not be cause of concern. Associate vitamin deficiency could be also predisposing factor

the lesion on tip of penis is due to previous scarring. If the lesion has remained of same size then there is no cause for concern.

I would suggest you the following

1. Oral Multi Vitamin supplements

2. Local application of steroid to tip of penis twice a day for 1 week

Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.

Take Care
