Hello,

Sores or lesions under the penis head commonly occurs due to unprotected sex, skin-to-skin contact, or sharing clothes or towels with someone who is infected. You are suggested to get clinically examined by a GP. Get STD tests done, if the reports show positive (genital herpes, warts, chancroid, syphilis, etc) results you will be treated with antibiotics or antivirals.

The treating doctor may tell you for a tissue biopsy to detect if the lesion is benign or malignant. Get treated at the earliest. Neglect will result in the worsening of the symptoms.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
