I have flat spots on my penis shaft. i had sex in october 2013 and i did wear protection. it started as 1 then spread to as many as 50. what is it?

See answer : Most spots on the penis do not usually have a serious cause, but some are infectious. Papules are small (less than 1cm diameter) lumps, raised above the skin surface. Most common are prominent sebaceous glands/hair follicles (sometimes called Fordyce spots) which i suspect is what you are noticing. Infectious causes include molluscum contagiosum and genital warts. If concerned, advise u see md.
