Small Red Spots On Underside Of Penis. Could You Give A Diagnosis?

Thanks for posting your query.
I have gone through the reports. The lesion on your penis looks more like blisters. If the blisters that you are having are not associated with any kind of pain or discharge then it might be due to friction or fungal infection. You can apply a local antiseptic and antifungal ointment to have relief.
Other possibilities are-
1.Dermatitis- caused by infections, allergies, and irritants (such as soaps, certain creams).Lesions are usually in the form of itchy small red bumps.
When become white headed, it may indicate a secondary bacterial infection and formation of pus.
2.Herpes simplex - Genital herpes is a very common disease caused by herpes virus type2. It results in small, very painful blisters (fluid is inside the lesion), genital irritation, itching, they burst into the sores turns into crust, that scab and heal in about 3 weeks.
Special tests include:
Blood tests, Microscopic examination of tissue scrap from lesions, Viral cell culture test.
Direct clinical examination is essential to rule out the above conditions.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.

You can use Daktacort ointment for 3-5 days and see if there is any improvement.
If there is no improvement or lesions deteriorate then you need to see a doctor and get a swab test done to confirm the diagnosis.
You might need a course of antibiotics and anti fungals orally.
Refrain from sex until your infection is resolved.
You need to observe good hygiene.
Hope my answer is helpful. Write back if you have further queries.
Wishing you a trouble free speedy recovery.
