Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
What discolouration you are complaining of on your penis could be due to bacterial infection of the skin, possibly due to poor personal hygiene.
Kindly take the following measures to overcome it.
1. Wash the area with warm water and mild antiseptic solution like Savlon, at least twice daily.
2. After drying, apply Neomycin skin cream on the lesion.
3. Take anti-inflammatory analgesic medication like Ibuprofen, after food.
4. Abstain from sexual activities till the lesions heal completely.
Gradually, your symptoms should reduce and be back to normal.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
