A member asked:
I have a question about ppp (pearly penile papules was wondering if i should get checked out for it because it seems like some came out on the tip on my penis, is that normal?

PPPs do not occur inside the urethra. If you see a growth emerging from inside your urethra, a genital wart is most likely. See a urologist soon. Good luck.

PPP usually occur behind the head in the depression called the coronal sulcus. If near the tip, have it checked for it probably is not PPP.
