      What age are you? The spots on the shaft of your penis are most likely Fordyce Spots and are quite normal.

      The other spots you have could be as a result of poor personal hygiene - you need to be having regular showers, change underwear daily, that kind of thing.

      The large spot at the base of your abdomen you need to treat with Liquid Antiseptic - dab the undiluted antiseptic directly onto this 3 or 4 times a day, then twice daily when it begins to heal until the wound has completely healed .....

      I think there is a combination of things going on here: you have spots on your genitals that are naturally present following Sexual Maturation and can appear up until the age of about 30. Most of these spots will be Fordyce Spots or are simply Sebaceous Glands.

      Some of the spots you have, such as the one on the abdomen are due to poor hygiene - you need to shower everyday if you can, then fully dry yourself with a clean dry towel that only YOU use. Change underwear everyday for freshly laundered ones ....

      Thank you a lot for your help. I do shower every day and change every day but in the same time I work long hours 14 hours a day and I sweat that might be the reason.. I hope that’s the reason

      It might be helpful to consider the clothing you wear for work, you want something that stops you from feeling cold, but, that does not encourage sweat to form.

      Light weight rather than heavy cotton can help, and cotton rather than man made fibres are usually the best - after that you may be best to go to outdoor clothing shops, or even base layers that sports people wear to control temperature and wick away sweat so that the sweat is not remaining next to the skin. Quality of these wick-away products are the essential - it is better to find something that really works for you, so stay away from the heavy, cheaper things that are out there.

      This time of year is a good time to pick up bargain quality products at sports and outdoor activity clothing shops - try one of each item first, do not buy lots of one thing in the hope that it will be right - try it first before you buy more of them .......
