Hi, I got a six years old boy ( turning 7 in July) , I have noticed brown patch on his underwear near his penis area...plz help me out on this....i mean I have been noticing since long like 2 year but always had another thought that patch might come cuz of heavy iron content in water which is used for laundry, but suddenly I noticed the same patch on his newly used underwear....

Hi,

If it is from 2 years and having no complaints then it might be Nevus, if possible please send the photographs of lesion for proper evaluation and treatment. Other differential diagnosis includes PENILE MELANOTIC MACULES which are again harmless structures.

Hope it helps. If you have any other question please do not hesitate to contact us.

Regards,
Dr. Atishay Bukharia
