How To Treat Purple Gland Around The Penis?
I have a purple ring around the glans of my penis. I am uncircumcised and my foreskin has been tight in the past, however I am able to pull it all the way back with no trouble now and have been regularly keeping the hood clean. Any ideas as to what this may be? The purple ring is a little tender, no sign of a fungal infection. I have read that using Bepanthen Cream for Nappy rash may help.

Hi,
Very difficult to comment without seeing directly or pictures.
Are you talking about pearly papules. If so they are harmless.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. B. Radhakrishnan. Nair, OBGYN
