Does Molluscum Contagiosum Effect On Penis Head With Bumps?
I was diagnosed with Molluscum Contagiosum. I was curious if it could be on the head of your penis? I continue to get more bumps as my doctor is giving me the TSA treatment but since my last visit I did not have these bumps on my head. Is it possible to get them there?

Good day and thank you for being with healthcare magic!
Yes molluscum contagiosum is more commonly called genital warts and can affect any part of the skin. It is not very common but I have seen patients who develop warts also in the head of the penis or the glans penis.
Treatment is still the same as with other parts of the penis.
