Question:
Dear Doctor,
For more than 10 years, I have had white bumps on my penis and scrotum. These pimples have been present for a long time, but they have not spread. They do not resemble blisters or warts; instead, they look like white pearls hidden under the skin's surface. I have attempted to squeeze them, but they do not come out, as they seem to be located right beneath the pores.
I have researched various male diseases and sexually transmitted infections, but none match the condition I am experiencing. So what disease is indicated by the appearance of white grains on the penis and scrotum? I hope you can provide me with some insights. Thank you!
Anonymous Question.
Dear Doctor,
I have noticed pimples on my scrotum. Initially, they were small, and I thought they were normal, so I left them alone. However, they have since grown into lumps, as large as soybeans. The skin’s surface is smooth and opaque white. I also tried to squeeze them, but nothing happened. I hope you can offer some advice. Thank you!

Answer:
Dear,
Regarding your inquiry about the white spots on the penis and scrotum, I would like to clarify that these spots are not pimples; they are a completely normal phenomenon in this area, so there is no need for concern. However, I advise against squeezing or damaging them, as this could lead to infection.
