Hello dear and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I already reviewed the attached photos.
If you can send a new actual photo it would be more helpful through the diagnosis.
The symptoms seem to be related to penile papules.
They are tiny white growth on the penis and are usually harmless.
No treatment is required.
Only in case that the papules cause stress that can be removed through minimal surgery.
Hope I have answered your query.
