Hi,
A small white spot on the shaft of the penis that looks like a zit could be several things. It could be a sebaceous
cyst, which is a small, harmless bump that forms under the skin. These cysts are typically painless but can become infected, causing
redness, pain, and inflammation.
Another possibility is a pimple or
folliculitis, which occurs when hair follicles become infected or inflamed. This can cause small white or red bumps to appear on the skin. It's also possible that the spot is a
genital wart, although this is less likely if you and your wife have been faithful to each other and she has tested negative for sexually transmitted infections.
It's important to have any new or unusual symptoms checked out by a healthcare provider. They can examine the spot and determine the cause, and if necessary, recommend the appropriate treatment. If it is a cyst, pimple, or folliculitis, the spot may go away on its own or require topical treatment. If it is a genital wart, treatment may involve medications,
cryotherapy, or surgical removal.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
