Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

Dear Sir

Thanks for providing clinical photograph. Such discolouration over glans penis usually result from previous episode of inflammation of glans. In the absence of symptoms like itching , bleeding or increase in size there is no cause for concern.

Local Application of mild steroid ointment for 2 weeks usually results in lightening of colour.

Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you
