What Causes A Small Red Spot On My Glans?

I have a small red spot with a lighter center on my glans for two weeks now. I ve been monogamous for 7 years and I m not concerned about std s. The red bump seems to be getting bigger but only slightly. It doesn t hurt but is more sensitive now (possibly due to scratching/etc).

Hello sir and welcome.

The boil could be many things, but needs to be examined and I would urge you to visit a doctor for the same. As the location of this red spot or boil is unconventional and usually not in the area of the more simple conditions, which is why I would request you to visit a doctor. I do not doubt either you or your partner when it comes to STDs but would certainly like to rule that out fro the list.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
