This looks okay to me!
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have reviewed the attached image and the results. The penis looks fine and the only concern might be that feeling which is hard to evaluate here. I'm not sure there is something too worrisome at this time. I will not advise any specific doctor’s visit at this time but please remember to bring it up to your doctor.
Also, please note that there is no active sign of herpes 1 here at this time.
Be relaxed and calm about this. Let’s monitor more and see if something else comes up.
Kind regards
This looks okay to me!
