What Causes Reddish Blotch On Penis Head?

Hi. I am a 45 yr old male, married for 23 years. I have never had any sexual relations outside of my marriage. A couple/few months ago, I developed some symptoms with regard to my penis: I noticed one purplish/reddish blotch in one spot on the head. Secondly, I would feel a discomforting pain when I had an erection. There is no discomfort or unusual occurrences when the penis is not erect. Oh yes... a second blemish did develop on quite nearly the opposite side. I have already seen a urologist.. but frankly.. he didn t really inspire confidence in me: he seems genuinely puzzled and confused by the symptoms. He did start me on antibiotics, which did nothing for neither symptom. I had experienced genital wart-like symptoms waaayyy back when I was about 19years old.. but no manifestations of any kind until just recently... however.. these are not even a wart.. just a discoloration or blotch. I would appreciate if you could provide me with some insight and some possible causes to discuss with my doctor. This is unnerving, as I literally have only one sexual partner in over 23 years and it is interfering with intimacy, due to the pain during erections. Thanks in advance.

it requires local checkup.check up for your wife is also required. better both of you should go for std checkup. it is definitely an inflammatory eruption. should have mentioned about any discharge. you have been using antibiotic so give the name of drug.
