Fordyce spots

2017-05-13 20:14:22
I noticed some bumps on the penile shaft lower side about 2 months back...did not pay much attention at that time. The bumps persisted so far. I have attached an image. Can you please advise if these are fordyce spots or something else? If not fordyce spots, what are they? Thanks

Hello there. I can understand your. Nope. Doesn't look like Fordyce spots to me. Get it checked out by a dermatologist in person for further evaluation and management. He will examine and tell you what it is. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
