: If it has not caused any issues, better to leave it alone. It may just be a variation on normal and be your normal. Wish you good health!

Without exam it is hard to give you a diagnosis. But from your description it does not seem concerning. Observe it . If any changes pl see a Urologist. I think you will be OK
