What Could Be Raised Spots On External Side Of Foreskin And Itchy Patches On Penis Shaft And Scrotum?
I have a cluster of 3 slightly raised spots on the external side of my foreskin. I also have larger raised patches that are itchy on the shaft of the penis and scrotum. I am 30 years old and sexually active. I live in a foreign country in business so going to the hospital is problematic due to language problems. Any advice would be welcome. Thanks in advance.
