I've been dealing with these Fordyce Spots on my penis for what feels like forever, about 34 years. I've just never really known what to do about them. Is there any way to get rid of them, or should I just let them be?

Using glycolic acid cream for skin whitening on brown, oily skin can be effective. However, it is important to start with a lower concentration to avoid irritation. You can try using Glyco-A 12% cream for skin whitening. Possible side effects may include redness, irritation, and increased sensitivity to the sun.

You can use glycolic acid cream for a long time as long as you follow the instructions and do not experience any severe side effects."
