I've noticed a single white pimple, or maybe it's a mole, on my penis for the last few days. There isn't any irritation or itching, it's just there. Should I be concerned about this? What could it possibly be?

These are common and usually harmless. However, it is important to monitor any changes in size, color, or shape. If you notice any changes or if it causes any discomfort, you should consult a doctor for further evaluation. No treatment is usually required for Fordyce spots or pearly penile papules.
