Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Welcome and thanks for posting your query to the forum.

I can understand your concern for the black spot on your tip of penis. There could be multiple causes of the spot on the penile tip. But most commonly it is due to simple friction or mild to moderate trauma over the area. This could cause activity of the color producing cells and therefore could produce blackish spot.

Even then to confirm the same and give you accordingly best suggestions I request you to kindly send a good resolution picture of the affected area. Kindly also tell the exact time period since the spot is present and any related point which is important in context of the spot.

I suggest you to attach the picture under report section of the query page. It is on right side of the page.

or alternatively you can send your pictures at:
