What Causes Orange Colored Bumps On The Tip Of The Penis?

Hello, I have some small (less than 1 mm) pale orange bumps on the end of my, um gentleman sausage. They re in little, long clusters that go up to about a centimetre, lengthwise in the bit of skin at the end which is all crinkled up, and you pull it back to see them. Theres a few rows of the bumps, and theyre on the underside of the tip. I tried to wipe them off, or squeeze them and there was no effect but when I squeezed them it hurt. I just noticed them when I was getting changed, and I ve searched the internet, but I havent found anything on orange ones like these. I havent showered or bathed in a few days, unfortunately. Also, theres a purple artery or vein or something in that area which is standing out. My urine is green as well. I suspect it might be an infection or something. Id like to also note that when I pull the skin back, it s going farther back than it ever has before. That might not have anything to do witg it, but I thought I should mention it. I m actually reaally nervous and shaky right now (hence the typos) because im a bit of a worrier, I am really scared and in need of reassurance so please reply soon.

Hi,

Orange colored bumps on penis, in lines, green urine, purple artery/vein on the same area all indicate that this may be balanoposthitis.
This can occur due to bad local hygiene as you have not bathed for a few days, unprotected sex, diabetes or after urinary tract infection.
Hence I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Clean the area with plenty of plain water, make it dry and apply liquid Povidone Iodine.
Use loose clothes.
Avoid hot and humid atmosphere.
Send the sample of urine and blood for relevant tests after consulting your Doctor.
Further management as per the findings.

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

Regards,
Dr. T Chandrakant, ENT & General Surgeon
