2 weeks ago I had this tiny white bump appear on my penis head. However, during this time it has scabbed over and now appears to be kind of glossy and is hard to see at times. However, it has not gone away yet.image

    it looks perfectly normal to me.

    could you please highlight any specific area you are mentioning above?

      the scab is in the middle on the right. Its quite tiny but still pretty noticeable in person. It appears to be a bit glossy but not raised at all. Would you need me to take a picture that's closer?

      Have you tried applying coconut oil on that?

      However i still don't see anything abnormal.

      Yes a close up would be better.

      I have not, but I have used some antifungal cream as that's what I thought it was initially. Here is a picture that is closer where you can see the scab more clearly image

      Are you about the tiny red spot?

      or the shiny area around the rim of the glans?

      i still don't see anything unusual.

      The red spot. In person it appears to be some type of scab that hasn't gone away for 2.5 weeks now

      Did it start off as a red or white spot?

    You said that its a bump but it's not raised? If its not raised then i would say that i'm currently experiencing something similar but more near the corona (rim) of my penis. In your photo it looks dried up or scabbed a bit. Is that the case? Because the same is happening to me. Mine has been going on for over 3 weeks now.

      Yes it seems to dry up then almost go away. But then it just keeps reappearing. I'd say that appears flat for the most part but when I run my finger across it I can feel it ever so slightly raised.
