I've noticed these pink bumps or genital warts on the glans of my penis for about 16 years now. I suspect it might be HPV, but Ive never had any tests or diagnosis done. They dont cause any health problems and haven't really changed in number, maybe just a tiny increase over the years. I haven't had any treatment yet. What do you think I should do about this?

I'm noticing these kind of spots on my foreskin and glans area, and I'm a bit worried. They don't itch or bother me, but I can't help but wonder if they're something serious. I've seen a dermatologist who mentioned they might be fordyce spots. Could these spots appear on the glans as well? Just trying to figure out if it's normal or if I should be more concerned.

no need to worry they are harmless and cane be grown over tip of the penis too,if they are bothering in terms of size and number visit dermatologist for appropriate tretament.

I'm really worried about this boil that's been causing me pain for the last two days. I saw a nephrologist, and they prescribed some medication for a 5-day course. Is this the right kind of treatment? Should I be doing anything else to help it heal faster?
