What Causes Fordyce Spots On Penis?

I am 20 years old and I have multiple fordyce spot on my genitals. Two weeks ago I noticed one near the head of my penis that was a little bigger than normal so I tried to pop it but nothing happened and it became inflamed. I am afraid that it might be an std and have really bad anxiety. It doesn t hurt and just looks like a red bump. Also unprotected sex about 6 months ago for the first time and every other time I ve used a condom. Could you please help me out and explain what could be happening?

Hi,

It can be due to sweat gland block and sebaceous gland block. Take STD panel test and rule it out.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
