Black Discoloration Around Urethral Opening, Small Reddish Spot At The Base Of Penis. Is This Normal ?

Hi. 23 year old male.Sexually inactive.I have a black discolouration around the urethral opening.No itching,pain or inflammation of any kind.Just the color exactly around the opening.IS that normal ?
Also I have a slightly very small reddish spot (very slight indication of inflammation, it is shiny) at the base of my penis(beginning of the scrotal sack).I am not sure if it is tinea or just a bruise that i got from scratching.I applied alchohol on it(which obviously burned).There is no other sign of an infection or color abnormalities anywhere else on the thighs,anus etc .. The nearest oddity is one purplish lesion filled with pus which appeared yesterday and is almost healed at the pubic tubercle (ish) on the right side.I am also just recovering from some minor upper respiratory tract infection and sinusitis. Should i be worried that these symptoms are related? Or are they separate coincidental events ?
