What Causes An Extra Growth Of Skin Near The Penis Head?

Hi, Suddenly since last week, I am observing that a thick skin have grown near the penis head which is blocking the opening. Though there is no pain and the skin is not tight but it is somehow blocking the urination process. It was nowehere till last. What is the reason for this sudden growth of such skin and what can be the remedy for the same. Is it something to be concerned about.

Hello,

It could be a skin tag or genital wart. Consult a dermatologist and get evaluated. If lesion persists it has to be cauterised.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
