Hi.i am having red inflamed glans penis.1 mm sized 2-3 dots on frenulum.no other problem.when touched it feels discomfortable.

Penis is red : Hi without seeing this directly the most common diagnosis i see with my patients having the same symptoms is that this is either a staph or a strep bacterial infection. It is most likely not an std. But, in most cases it will require antibiotics. So, please go see your trusted medical advisor today or soon.
