Cause

1. Some small white spots on the foreskin may be caused by pearl-like papules.

Some small white spots on the foreskin may be pearl-like papules. A pearl-like papule is a papular-like skin disease that occurs in the male coronary sulcus. It is clinically thought to be related to excessive foreskin and chronic inflammation. Therefore, there may be some small white spots on the foreskin. It is related to the length of the foreskin.

2, some small white spots on the foreskin may be caused by foreskin balanitis

The reason for some small white spots in the foreskin may be foreskin balanitis. The foreskin balanitis can be caused by unclean sex life and excessive foreskin. It can be seen that some small white spots on the foreskin may be related to the excessive length of the foreskin.

1, check the test: Candida balanitis (the dermatitis) can be found in the lesions of the glans, foreskin microscopic examination or culture can be found Candida. Trichomonas balanitis can find trichomoniasis on secretions.

2, caused by drug allergy is a delayed type of clinically quite common in general, 24 to 72 hours after eye drops.

Differential diagnosis

First, acute superficial balanitis: mostly due to underwear friction, trauma or soap, local irritant caused by detergent, edema, erythema, exudation, erosion, secondary infection with purulent secretions, easy to form ulcers, conscious pain.

Second, the ring erosive balanitis: the glans and foreskin inflammation damage is ring-shaped, or ring-shaped with cheese-like smegma, it is easy to break into shallow ulcers, and if it loses the ring characteristics, it is not easy to distinguish from superficial balanitis. The disease can exist alone or as a mucosal symptom of Reiter syndrome.

Third, plasma cell balanitis: more common in middle age, for single or multiple long-term chronic inflammation, the lesion is plaque-like, smooth surface or desquamation or moist, infiltration is more obvious, clear and not easy to collapse, The surface can be seen as tiny spots like paprika, and the shape is difficult to distinguish from the proliferative erythema of the glans.

If a similar lesion occurs in the female genital, it is called plasma cell vulvitis.

Histopathology is specific, a large number of plasma cells infiltrate in the dermis, telangiectasia, and hemosiderin deposition.

4. Mica-like and keratinized pseudoepithelial balanitis: The glans damage infiltrates hypertrophy, hyperkeratosis and mica-like molting, the affected area loses normal elasticity, shrinks over time, histopathology sees hyperkeratosis, and the acanthosis is thick. Epidermal extension is pseudoepithelial neoplasia.
