Brief Answer: Pigmentation peri urethral region Detailed Answer: Hi again I have seen the attached picture. You definitely have some pigmentation in the peri urethral region. Firstly it does not look like anything very serious . To me, it appears like a post inflammatory pigmentation . This is basically a pigmentation of the skin which develops after any kind of skin problem in the form of any infection or allergy. I can also see slight redness in the surrounding area. You need to apply a mild topical steroid and antifungal combination cream like candid b cream in the affected area twice a day. It will take care of both the pigmentation and the redness. You can use it for a week atleast. I am sure it will get better with treatment. The pigmentation might take a little longer to completely heal. But it has surely nothing to do with any cancer. Hope it helps Dr Geetika Paul

Brief Answer: Mild fungal infection with pigmentation Detailed Answer: Hi again It is difficult to point out the exact cause by looking at the lesion. But at present owing to the absence of any itching, pain or discomfort , it looks more like a post inflammatory pigmentation . This is basically a pigmentation of skin which develops when any primary skin condition in the form of any allergy or infection heals up. So right now, you simply apply the medicine as told. It should get better with treatment. It is less likely to be associated with any std also since most of the std ' s need proper and appropriate treatment for healing. I would rather think of a mild candidal which is fungal infection of the region which will heal with treatment . Dr Geetika Paul
