The : The best way to get a correct diagnosis for the lesions on your penis is to have them examined by your doctor. The doctors who write for this cite, can provide educated ideas but by researching this on -line you have already made informed guesses as to what your lesions might be. Nothing can replace a physical examination. Good luck.
