Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I noticed yesterday that there were pinkish/red shiny, flat spots on the shaft on my penis. They do not itch or hurt in any way. In the morning, it was hardly noticeable as they were just pink spots, but it gained more shape and became more red as the day went on. I planned on getting tested tomorrow. Should I be worried if I have something?
