VERY SLIGHT but in the mirror more noticeable and its a yellow hue like a baby with how do you spell it jaundice ? it s just a discoloration around the testicles, inner thigh in that area and shaft of the penis but not the head.. I have always had a darker purple colored head of the penis but I noticed this dis coloring for a long time now.. but have been checked out a few times over the years, my wife and I had the clap about 3 years ago but both of us treated.. any help ?

Thanks for posting your question on HCM!

You are advised to consult a dermatologist for the evaluation and treatment.
