What Causes Brown/red Spots Behind Penis?
hello. for the past month, i have noticed something weird going on my penis. I am 20 years old. and my penis now has some scaly spots behind my penis. it s like sunburn spots but it s not. kinda of dark brown and red. not itching or anything; it is just there. and just 2 days ago I had a dark brown spot on the top of my penis near the head. and just today i see 3 more forming near the beginning of where my penis would start. what can it be?

thanks for your query,
i can understand your problem, probably there may be some bacterial or fungal infections on your penis because of poor hygiene. if i were your treating physcian i would have given panderm cream applied three times daily, as an empirical therapy for 5 days then follow up the problem. any doubts please feel free to ask
thank you
