A member asked:

I have a bright red spot on the right side of my penis head. it does not hurt , it gets brighter after sex. what is it?

Probably benign: It is likely a smalll skin lesion known as a hemangioma which is a small blood vessel on surface of skin but if it is new and growing you should see your dr.
