Dear XXXXXX

The most common cause of cause of such spots is usually yeast infection/allergic reaction. Smegma is normal phenomenon and sometimes the rate of production can increase if there is any associated infection. So dont orry about the smegma.

You would need to get treatment for the red spots.

Use ointment containing micanozole with fluocinolone for 3 days. That should take care of the spots.

Also, avoid further sexual exposure for next few days.

Do get back if you need any further information.

Sincerely,

Dr Kiran
