- Skin tag – it's normal, happens in age advances

Lichen planus -
- Ingrown hair which is painful can leads to infection, needs medical management
- Rough masturbation/sex
- Bullous impetigo- bacterial infection due to bad hygiene or use of public pools, towels
- Pemphigus – it is an autoimmune disease. It can be diagnosed by Blood investigation

If its sexually transmitted Disease (STD). It can be
1. Herpes - Genital warts (HPV) can be diagnosed by the presence of very painful blisters, sallow ulcers or red base. There are treatment options for genital herpes, but there is no cure.
