    Man, I am having the exact same problem. Been like this for 8 months now. Visited 3 doctors and they couldn`t figure out whats wrong. Give me more details so that we can help each other.

      Had this problem for pretty much as long as I can remember. Haven't visited a doctor or anything as I haven't considered it until now. It doesn't cause me any problems apart from my self esteem.

    The meatus of your urethra looked similar to mine. I went to an urologist and he took urethral swabs (don't ever do it unless you have to, it was very painful for me and I was p*****g razors the whole day). Bacterial STIs came negative and my urine was also sterile. However, it did turn out I had a bacteria called Staphylococcus aureus. I am currently on antibiotics and the symptoms seem to be subsiding. Once I am done with taking the antibiotics, I will test for STDs as well and hopefully nothing comes up.

    I don't see any problems, looks normal to me. Some pearly penile papules around the crown, but they aren't an issue.
