Hello,

Pearly penile papules, also known as hirsutoid papillomas, are small, skin-colored bumps that form around the head of the penis.

A papule is a raised, pimple-like growth on the skin that does not produce pus. While these tiny bumps may seem alarming, they are harmless and will tend to fade in appearance as you age.

Therefore I suggest consulting a skin specialist for physical examination, diagnosis and treatment.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr. K. V. Anand
