Kindly upload Image and provide more details

Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you for writing to us

I have gone through your query and I have noted down your concern.

Brusing with red spots can be due to multiple causes..
It could be an infection i.e balanitis, most commonly due to yeast/ candida. Other causes could be a drug reaction, plasma cell balanitis, erythroplasia of queyart, autoimmune diseases etc.
I would like you to upload an Image so that I am able to guide you better. You may upload an Image either at "Reports Section" Or you may mail me at YYYY@YYYY with the subject line of this mail as Attention:Dr. Kakkar.
Also let me know the duration since you have this complaint?Is this recurrent Or is this the first time it is happening?
Do you have any symptoms like itching?burning?etc. Do have any other medical condition like diabetes?

Brief Answer:
You need to visit dermatologist to know the exact condition affecting glans

Detailed Answer:
Hi.

Yeast is unlikely considering that you are a nondiabetic and have an asymptomatic red patch on glans.
However, considering your age I would like to rule out possibilities of plasma cell balanitis Or erythroplasia of queyart (carcinoma in situ)
Other possibilities like a patch of eczema i.e either psoriasis Or seborrheic dermatitis can also affect the glans similarly and can be confimed on visual inspection.
It would be had for me to come to an exact diagnosis without having a look at an Image. If you can upload an Image that will give me a visual impression of your concern and I will be able to guide you better Or else I suggest that you visit a dermatologist in your region for the needful.
