Hello,
Fordyce spots happen when sebaceous glands, which moisturize your skin and are usually covered by your outer layer of skin, become enlarged and appear as tiny white spots.
These spots are harmless. They can appear almost anywhere on your body, including your scrotum and penis. 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
