Redness on the glans penis and the appearance of specific red spots are a sign of illness (infection) or, in the best case, irritation. If such spots are found, a man is recommended to consult a venereologist for an examination. I want to note that a small rash can accompany redness, which indicates that the infection began to manifest. Often, such symptoms indicate that the man is infected with a disease that is transmitted through sexual contact.
There are cases when redness on the head appears after the use of a poor-quality condom (an allergic reaction to latex) or after using various lubricating gels. The market also offers a large assortment of dubious hygiene products that can cause redness, so try to purchase hygiene products in pharmacies, as well as refrain from using intimate wipes.
So, redness on the head of a penis can be caused by household means, so if you are confident in your sexual partner, then do not worry about the spots that have appeared. In this case, consult a doctor, he will prescribe a short treatment and advise you on high-quality hygiene products. But if the redness on the head appeared not from chemical influences, then you need to think about it.
Consider some infections (diseases) from which red spots may appear on the penis.
Thrush, or candidiasis, can cause redness on the head, severe itching, the appearance of a rash or pimple, as well as a sticking pain. In most cases, thrush appears in men after unprotected sexual intercourse with a woman who is a carrier of this infection. In some cases, self-infection may occur, since Candida fungi live in the male intestine.
Thrush treatment should be carried out under regular medical supervision. As a rule, doctors prescribe antifungal agents and ointments that must be systematically taken, otherwise the disease can take a chronic form.
Dermatitis can occur in the form of red pimples on the head of the penis. Dermatitis is actually irritation from various substances, which can be accompanied by unpleasant itching.
Psoriasis appears as pinkish spots with clear edges. With the disease, peeling of the skin and severe itching can begin. Such redness on the head of the penis can be caused by prolonged exposure to the sun or, conversely, hypothermia.
Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted infection. Herpes manifests itself in the form of painful vesicles filled with a liquid that is transparent or slightly reddish. In advanced situations, this infection can lead to serious consequences, therefore, proper treatment is necessary.
The most serious disease can be genital cancer , which at the initial stage sometimes manifests itself in the form of small spots. Make sure that wounds, age spots and ulcers do not develop, because these are signs of penile deformation. If you notice such symptoms, consult a doctor immediately and begin serious treatment.
Of course, every man wants to believe that such a slight redness will not entail serious consequences, but you should not hope for luck, in any case, start preventive treatment, even if it is a usual urticaria.
Always remember that any unprotected sexual contact with a stranger can dramatically change your life for the worse. Love yourself and your body, adhere to the rules of hygiene, use high-quality condoms and personal hygiene products, do not use other people's towels and underwear.
