At first i thought it was a friction burn, but now i am not certain anymore. There is no pain but the skin seems to be thinner in that area, and after last intercourse with my girlfriend it did burn a little bit afterwards but was ok again one day after.

Its circular in shape and has like a purplish outter ring. imageimage

    This has the typical appearance of a fungal issue - now marks like this can appear anywhere on the body, a similar issue is usually typical n the scalp, and as I say the typical location can also be the central chest area, the groin and on the penis itself.

    You could try the regular treatments for athletes foot such as Clotrimazole or Miconazole and see if this clears it after a couple of weeks. If not and this is proving to be quite stubborn in shifting, or there is potentially another skin condition present (as well) you may be best seeing a Dermatologist - but try the easy treatment first for 2 to 3 weeks first .....

      it is funny you say that. I actually picked up some Clotrimazole last night as that was my conclusion as well. I will try it out and see what happens. Thank you

    had same problem.

    biopsy result will be available in 5 days then will come to know what is it.

    mean time consumption of turmeric, garlic and greens might help.

    Note: am not a doctor, results might vary.
