Hey guys - 18 year old here with an uncut penis. Recently I was taking a shower and cleaning down there and I noticed this extremely dark/brownish spot on the right side of my head when I pull my skin back. It’s a black/brown patch and it’s somewhat “wrinkly”, but there’s no irritation or pain down there. i know it’s hard to see on the picture but it’s extremely noticeable in person. It most definitely occurred recently as I haven’t seen this before. And to add on, I’ve been having a slightly strong odor from down there as well. Does anyone know what could be going on/ have any tips? Kinda scared and I’m hoping it’ll just go away.

Any such spots or blotches that have a different skin tone and/or texture in that area should be checked out. Probably nothing but best be sure early on.
Hi there DTX.
What country are you in? Your profile doesn't specify. Just wondering what healthcare arrangements you're likely to have.
If you have access to a GP / doctor or a GUM clinic (genito-urinary medicine clinic) it's certainly worth getting it checked out. If nothing else it can put your mind at rest, or get whatever problem it might be sorted.
I know it might be a daunting prospect, but they see hundreds of penises a week, and in the nicest way possible, yours is just another day at the office. They'll treat you professionally, respectfully, and as a valued patient. (Source: personal experience, several times.)
Getting it checked is best - let the professionals do what they do best.
Let us know how it goes.
Cheers.

Can’t agree more. A visit to get it checked out is the first step. Far too many men leave their health issues and cause more problems for themselves in the long term.
