Can A Small Circular Spot On My Penis Be A Singular Spot Of Psoriasis?
Hi, I'm a 23 year old uncut guy and have noticed a small circular spot on my penis. It looks like the top layer of the head was peeled away of something. Before I saw this circular spot, it was a small red sore/sensitive/slightly itchy bump. I thought it might be the beginning of a yeast infection (it has happened to me before that it's a bright red bump that's sore and itchy).
I am not sexually active and have never seen this before. Could it be just a singular spot of psoriasis?

Hello,
From the history, it looks like yeast infection only. But difficult to predict with seeing pictures or direct examination. If sexual contact is there, then it can be herpes too.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. B. Radhakrishnan. Nair
