I think this forum is under dermatology that’s why I am going to write my post about skin related problem here. If it’s not the right one for seeking advice pls let me know in the reply sections.
I am 39 year Old Male and Circumcised. Few months back I noticed some elongated oval shaped brown spots appeared on the glans of my penis. First I thought they could be some kind of moles and would go away on their own. I have done some research online too and it said if they are not ragged outlined then nothing to worry. But these actually are hard to define by the look.
The matter of worries is, instead of going away they actually keep coming more in number and I recently found another one appeared right by the urethra. Now so far from my research I found they could be Penile Melanois which are normally harmless.
But why suddenly the number are increasing. First start with two now 4/5 around the glans. Is that normal? Or M I too paranoid? Should I take them really seriously? Please advise me. I didn’t upload photos cause I am not sure if this is the right forum although my problem is all about skin condition. Thanks in advance for any wise reply.

I am sorry that no one has replied yet. The only advice I can offer is to see your GP, as I realise you are getting concerned about the spread of the condition.
Hi Loversradio many thanks for your kind time to reply to my problem. I have seen a doctor in my local area GUM clinic. Doctor said it’s melanosis. But why they keep coming it could be matter of bit concern. Doctor asked me to keep an eye on it. After visiting Doctor I found few more appeared newly. That’s really making me anxious.
No medication but did some STI check because it was a GUM clinic. She reassured that these are harmless normally yet to keep an eye if more come in cluster then need to go back to the clinic perhaps they would refer to dermatology.
That’s very annoying and frustrating right? Did you see any doctor about it? Are those elongated shaped with definite outline or round shaped with ragged outlined?
Every time i have an appointment some thing goes wrong and i cant make it. Im depesrate and feel like im gonna lr having a nervous break down they are round flat and i can take them off my skin. I started my topical medicine alonf with natural stuff so im praying jt will work but it can drive someone insane
Don’t worry Lilrosie they don’t sound anything cinister to me. Normally if those spots were ragged outlined then it could be matter of concern. Try to relax and see the Doc ASAP. Good luck.
Does it itch? Can u tame them off? And i have used bleach mixed wkth water baking soda apple cider vinegar and lice stuff. And i can say i think i might of had break threw. I dont have all that itching the weird part js that it now comes ojt like white fuzzy stufr.
Mine ones are just flat oval shaped. No they don’t itch and don’t come off either. They are just there. Glad yours one has come off. Don’t use too much bleach. They are not good for skin. White fuzzy stuff could be some Kind if puss. Good luck.
I have to ask are they flat? And can you wipe them off? I have a Dr and I am suffering from parasites fleas gnats and mites! finally someone actually has seen with there own eyes that I am not crazy! we are doing homopatheic methods and using my own with it and yesterday was the first break through I have had! I'm excited and we are not gonna stop till we figure this out thank god he is a retired Dr of science and has colleagues that want to see me only because I had an abscess shaped like a bug. so does it itch pkease tell me morw
Hi Lilrose they are flat and not itchy. But bit scary to look because they were not there before and appeared suddenly. I think those are called melanosis. But no Idea why not going away. Good luck with yours one. Let me know what Dr said? Are those abscess? Do you have any pics of them? Anyway hope they can figure out how to get rid of them. Let me know. Thanks
Hi Fay39, did your spots disappeared?. I've some spot like yours at least i suppose that. I've visited my doctor and said this spot are normal by my age (45). There are brown and flat
No Roma, they are still there. Suddenly appeared but no sign of going away! Is yours one on the same area? I mean on the Glans? Are they raised and and defined outlined?
