Pigmentation: Common for boys and men to have a penis & scrotum much darker than the rest of his body. The darker your son's complexion and general pigmentation, greater the likelihood of his genitalia being much darker.

Not sure: Penis and scrotal skin are often more pigmented than the rest of the body's skin. This is of no concern. If it is truly black (i mean black) get to an md now!
